TeX Live 2019 severe issue: destroyed page formatting of the geometry package

Hello Tex Live 2019 team,

I figured out a severe TeX Live 2019 issue regarding the geometry
(https://ctan.org/pkg/geometry?lang=de) package.

Please compile the attached example

<<main.tex>>

using TeX Live *2018 *and TeX Live *2019 *and compare the result.

The page formatting using TeX Live *2019 *is completely destroyed on
page 2 onward, which is not the case for TeX Live *2018*.

I am not sure if the failure is on my side, how I use the geometry package.
But I use it now for >10 years in the same way and had no problems with
different TeX Live releases.

Best regards,
Werner Simbuerger
