D-Bus (and its various dependencies) were updated from 1.12.0-1 to 1.12.2-1, 
libgtk-3 from 3.22.25-1 to 3.22.26-1 and libdrm-{intel,amd,common} from 
2.4.85-1 to 2.4.88-1. So no major updates. And yes, I did restart after 
installing those updates.

I'm using i3 4.14.1-1 with xorg-server 2:1.19.5-1 on an Intel graphics chip.

The output of thunderbird --verbose was not very helpful:
$ thunderbird --verbose
INFO  -> [[ ... using verbose mode ... ]]
DEBUG -> call '/usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird '
No protocol specified
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
Error: cannot open display: :0

But, looking through the man page, I found the run-mozilla.sh script for 
debugging:
$ /usr/lib/thunderbird/run-mozilla.sh /usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin

And Thunderbird runs! 
Also, directly running /usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin works, too!
Which is really weird because /usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird and 
/usr/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin are the same, but only the latter one can 
connect to the X server.

What could be the difference between thunderbird and thunderbird-bin?
