CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 (a TIMESTAMP(6) NULL);

INSERT INTO t1 VALUES ('1970-01-01 00:00:00.000001');

SELECT unix_timestamp(a), unix_timestamp(coalesce(a)) FROM t1;

+-------------------+-----------------------------+

| unix_timestamp(a) | unix_timestamp(coalesce(a)) |

|          0.000001 |                        NULL |

The problem resides in this code in Field_timestampf::val_native():

  // Check if it's '0000-00-00 00:00:00' rather than a real timestamp

  if (ptr[0] == 0 && ptr[1] == 0 && ptr[2] == 0 && ptr[3] == 0)

    to->length(0);

    return false;

It considers all values with zero seconds as zero datetime. It's not enough. It should also check microseconds for zero.
