So writing the efi variable to efivars succeeds, but bootctl does not 
create a corresponding cache entry in /run/systemd/efivars. When it 
reads the data, it only tries to read the cached entry and fails, as 
there is none. Did I get that correctly?

Sounds like a valid bug to me and I'd suggest you file this upstream.
