I reread the entire topic, preparing for another attempt to solve the issue.
In reareading, I corrected the (misleading) errors that I noticed. You can see where I corrected, in four places [2], because they are all marked with a string beginning with "EDIT 2017-04-02 12"
as well as in the bottom automatically with the timestamp beginning with "Sun Apr 02, 2017 6".

The scripts that I mentioned in the latest posts, and which I will use to get a textual in-one-place comparison of the lines from the network trace and the syslog lines is only half done... I had only a few days for that in the time since I last wrote here...

But I'm still unsure what to try next. Probably either doing a few similar tests first, or, since the cause could perfectly lie with Libvirt, maybe try reinstalling Libvirt in slightly different way... ?

Why could it lie with Libvirt? Because it already happened:

=sys-kernel/hardened-sources-4.7.6: Kernel panic when starting KVM guests
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597554

That bug has cause headaches for lots of people, and it turned out it was resolved after disabling "CONFIG_GRKERNSEC_SYSFS_RESTRICT"... It could be some such story preventing my Libvirt under grsec to get the networking done... And could there be things to install differently regarding the network functionality in Libvirt, maybe... ?

But in the meantime, I'm perfectly able to run Virtual Machines under Qemu, and so, this even isn't a pressing issue to me... An itching issue it is... I'd like to solve it very much, don't misunderstand me!

I'll gladly consider any ideas anyone has in this respect!

I have made more, new, versions of my /etc/grsec/policy, and probably got Qemu and Tcpdump sorted, but not Libvirt programs in them.
See for yourself:
Qemu RBAC policies (& libvirt & tcpdump...)
