Here's a solution based on Mateusz's:
There's an incompatibility between licef and libglib, so let's stop them from being in the same folder.
When I list
/usr/local/MATLAB/R2017a/cefclient/sys/os/glnxa64
I get:
libffi.so libgio-2.0.so.0 libgmodule-2.0.so.0.4200.2 libgthread-2.0.so
glib.tgz libffi.so.5 libgio-2.0.so.0.4200.2 libgobject-2.0.so libgthread-2.0.so.0
libcef.so libffi.so.5.0.2 libgmodule-2.0.so libgobject-2.0.so.0 libgthread-2.0.so.0.4200.2
libgio-2.0.so libgmodule-2.0.so.0 libgobject-2.0.so.0.4200.2
To make changes ot this folder you need root privileges. All commands below were executed as root.
Create a backup folder bak:
cd /usr/local/MATLAB/R2017a/cefclient/sys/os/glnxa64
mkdir back
Move glib there:
Optionally create a README text file indicating the changes you made for future reference.
After this change, I get the message:

But MATLABWINDOW seems to be working.
