Well, it's two different things:

a) defer to /sbin/chkconfig if "systemctl enable" is used on a sysv
   service.
        
b) take into account any information included in the sysv header that
   exists.

Turning off chkconfig support does a), not b). And I'd really prefer if
sysv scripts would behave the same way on all systemd installations... I
mean that's what we try to do after all, provide a unified interface
for developers...
