@Octavi
Well, you found a workaround.
We are using a template based preseed file with the installation managment tool
foreman (theforeman.org).
And we have different debian/ubuntu versions in our environment...
I don't wanna script a workaround for every new os version because of new nasty
bugs.
I found a solution that works for me:
By default in xenial documentation:
d-i apt-setup/local0/repository string http://local.server/ubuntu xenial
main
But only adding word "deb" before the URL it works:
d-i apt-setup/local0/repository string deb http://local.server/ubuntu
xenial main

To say it clear once again... This issue disqualifies Ubuntu xenial from
professional usage at the moment. Why is this Bug ignored? Could you
please at least set an importance Level?

Title:
preseed fails to add custom repos with apt-setup/local0/rep
I can confirm this bug. Happens to me if I try to preseed install Ubuntu
Xenial (with Foreman). The bad news is, that the install fails because
apt is unable update (with the error in sources.list) and so no packages
for kernel etc. can be found. For me that means I cannot use Xenial at
the moment
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
** Changed in: debian-installer (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
