Here's some more: I ran

$ sudo sleep 300

with the following /etc/sudo.conf

  Debug sudo /var/log/sudo_debug all@debug

which resulted in the attached sudo_1.8.9b1.debug.xz (truncated, the last
few lines are repeated very fast).

As an experiment, I rebuilt sudo 1.8.9b1 with --disable-poll to make the
event loop use select() instead of poll()
(i.e. the method used in sudo 1.8.8). It behaves  basically the same way:
loops furiously in the event loop.

BTW, sudo 1.8.8 works fine in my configuration, see sudo_1.8.8_debug.xz.
The main difference to sudo_1.8.9b1.debug.xz is what happens after the line
containing "exec /bin/sleep".

The only influence of systemd I can see is that sudo loads pam_systemd.so.
