I'm a bit confused.  In #systemd, I'd been told that this was not relevant to my specific issue, and that the problem was solely with my distro.

So, here's where I've been discussing it:

Bug 903560 - opensuse 13.1 ( + Kernel:Stable 3.17.2 + systemd 210) exec of `shutdown` restarts machine instead 
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903560#c40

Is the fixed-in-git you are referencing relevant to the issue with systemd discussed at opensuse?
