Hm, comparison of strace output on the working and failing systems shows the failing one accessing /usr/local/lib/libsqlite3.so.0 shortly before everything goes wrong. At the same point the working system accesses /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.0. Moving the /usr/local/ SQLite libraries out of the way seems to fix the problem.
I don't know where the SQLite libraries in /usr/local/ came from, but they must have been from a manual installation of something at some time in the past, and I'm guessing they were in some way incompatible with Evolution and were knocking it into a spin. So, use error and not an Ubuntu bug.
