This appears to be a regression in systemd. I extracted the unit file we're trying to link and manually linked it through systemctl and it succeeded with 222-2ubuntu1, but failed with 223-1ubuntu1:

ubuntu@cherylj-wily4:~$ apt-cache policy systemd

ubuntu@cherylj-wily4:~$ sudo systemctl disable /var/lib/juju/init/juju-db-ubuntu-local/juju-db-ubuntu-local.service
Removed symlink /etc/systemd/system/juju-db-ubuntu-local.service.
