Some packages require systemd; some may provide configure stage
options to disable systemd support which can be supplied by the
package definitions in Guix. But for these that do not make systemd
support configurable, what is the general approach to make such
packages available in GNU Guix?

Some of these packages are perfectly happy with elogind. Others only
check to decide what files to install (systemd unit files or those for
another init system).

There are now cases of packages linking to Systemd, not just checking
for installing init scripts.
should these be considered bugs of such packages (and we shall ask the
package authors to make systemd optional)?

You could look at how Gentoo fixes this since it has an OpenRC profile that masks systemd.
