[ale] systemd or not

[leam hall]

The issue is that people who work in enterprises have to support more
than one OS. I just complained about this on a RH list for the same
reason. Solaris SMF is in the same trash pile.

The chkconfig stuff was great in that it gave you an interface to
standard init scripts. If you have application dependencies they need
to be in the application scripts, not at the OS's level of control.
