It would seem, that libsystemd-daemon.la needs to be added to libsystemd_core_la_LIBADD.

[Comment 3 Michał Górny 2012-12-04 05:30:21 UTC]

I don't think that's something known upstream. Could you report it to bugs.freedesktop.org, or try to reproduce with systemd-9999 (available in mgorny overlay).

[Comment 4 Sean McGovern 2012-12-05 00:48:55 UTC]

Reproduced with a git clone of fd.o systemd HEAD.

Will open a bug upstream.

[Comment 5 Sean McGovern 2012-12-05 03:53:58 UTC]

Resolved successfully upstream -- patch will presumably be part of release 197.

Upstream patch will not apply cleanly to 196 ebuild due to sed in the prepare section.

[Comment 6 Sean McGovern 2012-12-05 04:38:35 UTC]

Celebration was premature -- built successfully but machine will now not boot.

[Comment 7 Sean McGovern 2012-12-06 22:43:28 UTC]

Resolving as FIXED.

Boot issue was due to radeon.ko not being loaded at boot anymore, so no messages were showing on console -- machine was actually booting successfully otherwise. Fixed this with the following, which I should have done in the first place:

echo "radeon" > /etc/modules-load.d/radeon.conf

Thanks Michał and Rafał!
