Gnah! If I had any idea how the automake magic with unit-files works,
I could help you. I cannot see why the unit file is not distributed.
Maybe Zbigniew has an idea (CC).

For now, you can just copy it from systemd-git:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/units/container-getty@.service.m4.in
(you need to remove the m4_ifdef() magic, though)

Thanks
