[SOLVED] thunderbird 148.0.1-2 crashes on old system

The latest version  148.0.1-2 of thunderbird crashes. The previous one I used, 148.0-4, still works.
But on two more recent platforms it does not crash.

I put the journal output of the crashing system here:

SIGILL, known issue with the botan update, already fixed upstream. Only affects processors without SSSE3, basically very old AMD stuff. Maybe some very old low end Intel, but I haven't looked into that.
