I don't have the old boot logs, and have since upgraded the system
further.

IIRC, the boot was failing after not being able to find the root fs
(ext3/lvm/raid0). I thought it was a dracut issue, but it seemed to be
fixed by enabling bootmem.

In this case, in the last few days (also when I first saw or noticed the
bootmem option). I was booting relatively recent linus kernels during the
merge window, although my main work was being done on an older upstream
kernel.
