FWIW I am not sure that this is the right solution. Logind has some
other interfaces (notably the /run/systemd file system and the cgroups)
and it really wants to be running from beginning to end. If it's
bus-activated, could it be killed at some point if it's inactive? If so
that would be bad I think.
Maybe it's OK. It certainly solves the race, in some way. I think
before a "guix system reconfigure" would restart logind, also; is that
still the case? Which is better? Very murky to me.
