Many thanks, Jonathan, I think that resolves the problem:
root@scw:~# cat /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
26da2c29c6a545fd9af95d29ca9b5a5a
root@scw:~# cat /etc/machine-id
26da2c29c6a545fd9af95d29ca9b5a5a
6df
root@scw:~#
Not sure how the 6df ended in /etc/machine-id, but after removing that things
seem to have settled:

I upgraded from a fresh jessie installation (image from scaleway, I did not
install myself). Is it worthwhile to chase down the origin of the 6df or is
this a known issue which should not affect the standard upgrade path from
jessie to stretch?
Kind regards
Rainer
