More info:
What happened is that we have class hierarchies in our models. With
M2, it works. With M3, it doesn't. What is also curious is that the
interface in the Modeler of M3 does not allow anymore to have a DB
Entity inherit from another DB Entity ?? I guess that is the problem
since reverting to an M2 version of our models and running the exact
same code with M2 works.

Ok, I will try.
Maybe the model but I maybe did something stupid: I opened the
models with the M3 modeler then saved them. Still the crash. Then
reverted to M2 (without changing the models). Again a crash....
which seems to tell us it is not M3.
But: are the model formats compatible between M2 and M3 ? In other
words, can I continue to work with M3 modeler whatever version M2
or M3 of Cayenne I am using?
Thanks,
Alex

Did anything change in your mapping since the Cayenne update? The
easiest way debug the NPE is to put a breakpoint at the line above
and see why "join.getTarget()" returns null. I suspect a mapping
problem, but don't fully exclude a possibility of a Cayenne bug.
