In that case further troubleshooting is require to figure out what else
is missing to get working coredump support on xenial. As this is not
default functionality in use today on xenial, debugging this
functionality is low priority for me, and is open for any contributor to
pick up and investigate.

  SRU INFORMATION
  ---------------
  This only affects systemd-coredump which we don't use in Ubuntu by default (we use Apport), so the regression potential is very low. There is no straightforward reproducer for this (see upstream bug report: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2984). But our systemd package has integration tests for coredump: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/tests/boot-and-services?h=ubuntu-xenial#n436 

  Thus if the updated package still succeeds its autopkgtests, this
  should provide sufficient regression testing for this bug.
