Actually, I was able to create a smaller test script immediatly after i
posted the previous mail:

#!/bin/sh

func() {
	! false && echo foo
}

! false && echo "no problem"
func


it will echo "no problem" and then segfault.

interestingly enough, this happens only on a grsecurity kernel, but not
on a default gentoo kernel (in chroot). tested in kvm only so far.
