At that point I killed pacman, deleted the package from the cache and everything worked fine again.
This probably happened because of a funny state of the leftover .part file, as I had a complete system freeze when trying to update before. (No clue why that happened, usually the system is ultra stable. First crash I remember in a looong time.)

Oh, some more detail: The system crash happened while using pacman pkg 2.9.7-4, the
strange behavior was witnessed using pkg 2.9.8-1.
This task depends upon
