For those affected by the bug, could you please paste the output of 'sudo sudo -V | head -1', and of 'sudo sudo -V | grep -e ve: -e HOME', and of 'sudo grep -v ^# /etc/sudoers'? Because if all things are at their defaults, the sudo of Wily shouldn't be preserving HOME but should be setting it to the home directory of root instead.
