So, I went ahead and used this patch in my scratch1 deployment, of course it was not enough to get it working.
Bionic ships with Ansible 2.5, and obvously it breaks a couple of things that works on Xenial. The problem is that the fixes/ported tasks are not compatible with the ansible version in Xenial...
So, we need to do a forced upgrade to bionic...which is not trivial given this is not a switch-deploy, etc.

something to discuss with management.
