This issue was a problem in backward compatibility of settings, it was caused by the XML Support module (written for 3.2) which doesn't have its XMLSupportSettings (descendant of SystemOption) correctly written (uses constructor for the initialization). Unfortunately it worked in 3.2 and thus should in 3.3 as well, I have made appropriate changes in SharedClassObject and SystemOption classes to solve it and eliminate similar situations with other modules.
Verified.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
