Ok, here we go.

I put 
(defmacro ignore-errors (&rest body)
   "Execute BODY; if an error occurs, return nil.
Otherwise, return result of last form in BODY."
   `(condition-case nil (progn ,@body) (error nil)))

in my .emacs as Carsten advised.
This action seems to be a complicated form of do-nothing.
At least my error message remains the same.
(emacs was restarted after adding the macro to .emacs)

Nightly git checkout.

I inline my (ugly) .emacs as it stands.
It is unchanged since ages. 
My guess is something goes wrong there.

Seems uninformative to me:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-function ignore-errors)
  ignore-errors(nil)
  org-update-checkbox-count()
  org-update-checkbox-count-maybe()
  org-toggle-checkbox(nil)
  call-interactively(org-toggle-checkbox)
  org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c(nil)
  call-interactively(org-ctrl-c-ctrl-c)

Any ideas?
