OK, I found a workaround:

$ sudo apt install systemd=229-4ubuntu4 libsystemd0=229-4ubuntu4
libpam-systemd=229-4ubuntu4

Looks like it's not a coreutils nor a who issue, it's a systemd issue,
perhaps related to backport, since I'm not seeing it on bionic.

Of course next upgrade will break it again, until the packages are
fixed.
