I'm arch, so running systemd-218.

Damn, that sounds bad.  However, I'm running stable, so won't be affected.

I do agree with both you and Rich, though, that systemd really ought to have a
stable branch.  Their release workflow appears to me to be much like that of
the linux kernel, only without the stable trees.  Honestly, I would be
surprised if they didn't have the developer resources to provide this.
