I could never reproduce it with "real" logins, so for now I suspect that this is due to the rather unusual way of running processes in a VM directly on a root shell on ttyS1, which circumvents any PAM/logind. I remember that this also breaks some other tests which expect automatic ACLs and other things that a proper PAM session provides, so I fixed autopkgtest to provide a PAM session in all cases: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/autopkgtest/autopkgtest.git/commit/?id=5d45a5999
