--- Comment #1 from Lennart Poettering <lennart at poettering.net> ---
You may not use systemctl or anything like that in generators. That's simply
not supported.

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Generators/

"Since generators are run very early at boot they cannot rely on any external
services. They may not talk to any other process."

I'll add a note that makes explicitly clear that systemd itself is also one of
those external services.
