Verification done with Xenial. All good!
# lsb_release -d
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Previous Package:
----------------
0) No existing user/uid:
# id libvirt-qemu
id: ?libvirt-qemu?: no such user
# getent passwd 64055
#
User is created w/ the next available uid
# apt-get install --yes --no-install-recommends
libvirt{0,-bin}=1.3.1-1ubuntu10.6
# id libvirt-qemu
uid=110(libvirt-qemu) gid=117(kvm) groups=117(kvm)
# getent passwd 64055
#
Proposed Package:
----------------
1) With existing user (e.g., package update)
# id libvirt-qemu
uid=110(libvirt-qemu) gid=117(kvm) groups=117(kvm)
User uid remains the same:
# apt-get install --yes --no-install-recommends
libvirt{0,-bin}=1.3.1-1ubuntu10.7
# id libvirt-qemu
uid=110(libvirt-qemu) gid=117(kvm) groups=117(kvm)
# getent passwd 64055
#
2) Without existing user (e.g., new install)
# apt-get purge --yes libvirt{0,-bin}
Reading package lists... Done
# userdel libvirt-qemu
# id libvirt-qemu
id: ?libvirt-qemu?: no such user
# getent passwd 64055
#
User uid is set to the reserved uid:
# apt-get install --yes --no-install-recommends
libvirt{0,-bin}=1.3.1-1ubuntu10.7
# id libvirt-qemu
uid=64055(libvirt-qemu) gid=117(kvm) groups=117(kvm)
# getent passwd 64055
libvirt-qemu:x:64055:117:Libvirt Qemu,,,:/var/lib/libvirt:/bin/false
3) Without existing user (e.g., new install) _but_ with uid taken
# apt-get purge --yes libvirt{0,-bin}
# id libvirt-qemu
id: ?libvirt-qemu?: no such user
# getent passwd 64055
uidtaken:x:64055:1001::/home/uidtaken:
# apt-get install --yes --no-install-recommends
libvirt{0,-bin}=1.3.1-1ubuntu10.7
User uid is set to the next available uid:
# id libvirt-qemu
uid=110(libvirt-qemu) gid=117(kvm) groups=117(kvm)
# getent passwd 64055
uidtaken:x:64055:1001::/home/uidtaken:

BTW,
*again*, sorry for all the noise/attachments from the bug mirroring.
This problem has already been passed along to its development team.
I have no idea why this happens.
