Because these are real on/off tests (with which I mean with a relais which switches on/off every 10 seconds or so, a cold restart) I did not have the ability to test it with a debugger.
What I did was changing the LDO voltage from 1.2V to 1.3V and measure this with a scoop. When I put the adjustment right before this setup_c(), it goes well all the time (even when the board is blocked), 
when I put it after this setup_c(), it doesn't  get through when the board is blocked. So my assumption is it blocks in this function.

This is in a first stage boot...

I'll check
