Yes, it is :
lookup_paths_init is called in manager_new and generators are called
later, in manager_startup.

If we make sure lookup_paths_init is called last, we could remove from
manager_run_generators the need to add "/run/systemd/generator" to
lookup_paths : instead, we always "put it" in the list and it will
evicted if empty by lookup_paths_init
