I can't reproduce the problem.

# getent passwd mail
mail:x:8:8:mail:/var/mail:/usr/sbin/nologin

works just fine in a usr-merged system.

I also can't reproduce the installation failure of exim4 (tried in
chroot created with the new debootstrap).

Fwiw, the new d-i alpha8 uses the new deboostrap as well and exim4 is
typically installed as part of the system installation.

I just tried a stretch alpha8 installation. Worked fine as well.

Can you attach the exim4 generated config file?
What does
# getent passwd mail
say in your jenkins build chroot?
