I backported the 230 fix for systemd to the xenial version of the package and started a test-build in my PPA. The patch didn't apply cleanly so I had to do some manual interventions - also, the changeset is pretty big itself. Since I am not a systemd maintainer I would prefer Martin to take a look at the patch before proceeding, so for now I am attaching the debdiff here for further review (along with links to the PPA, in case the package builds fine as I basically just did the dput).
But I also heard that possibly only the dbus fix might be sufficient. In case anyone confirms that I will prepare a new dbus distro-release for yakkety and xenial SRU.
