But it's strange Laurent mentioned it...

I think Laurent should downgrade and verify using a more minimal 
implementation -- use a basic assembly language INTOSC blinker. If 
that can be checked, then we can tick off a few items as checked. 
I've tried a lot of one-LED blinking without decoupling caps, they 
all work.

If he's using a crystal, the circuit ought to be clean of flux 
residues, even no-clean types. I've found in the past that 
wet-weather tropical humidity plus unclean traces is enough to 
very easily stop 32kHz crystals, and even one 4MHz crystal. The 
same circuits worked a little later on a sunny day...
