I found the problem and could fix it!

The absolute symlink /bin -> /usr/bin was problematic. I changed it to /bin -> 
usr/bin 
and do-release-upgrade then run without error abort.

I cannot say what created this wrong absolute symlink, but do-release-
upgrade should be a little more liberal and accept absolute symlinks,
too.

I am not the only one who had this kind of problem, see:
https://askubuntu.com/a/1530420

A generic workaround fix is:

apt install usrmerge
cd /
for i in bin sbin lib; do rm $i; ln -s usr/$i; done
