Indeed. Sounds like something worthy to be fixed. I figure we never
noticed this on Fedora because so few sysv scripts remain now, and they
are exotic...

Anyway, happy to take a patch. It probably just requires shifting around
the first lines in enable_unit() in systemctl.c a bit, so that we mangle
the names first, and then pass things to chkconfig... As I don't really
have any sysv scripts installed anymore, I kinda rely on a patch for
this...
