Is that not, however, a simple fix? There might be a case of death by million cuts but that's true of any new software that replaces any existing software.
But systemd IS NOT only an init system.

And while we (=the company i work for) still have not officially started our evaluation of the platform, if RHEL7(.0) does not have this bug fixed then I will be strongly against supporting it officially, since in case of crash we would not be able to get or pass up to the devs the core file for analysis.
