No, I suppose is in syslog-ng sources, but the ebuilds in Gentoo
disables systemd support (at least for 3.3.5):
# grep -n systemd /usr/portage/app-admin/syslog-ng/syslog-ng-3.3.5-r1.ebuild
68: --disable-systemd \
So you can fill a bug in Gentoo to get systemd support in syslog-ng,
or just take the unit file from the source and put it in
/etc/systemd/system. I don't know why it is diabled, though.

Sorry: I meant remote-fs.target; I don't think there is
remote-fs.service, it is a target (and one of the special ones). Do
you need remote filesystem support? If not, then don't worry about it;
but if you want to find the problem, send the output from systemctl
status remote-fs.target. Mine is:
# systemctl status remote-fs.target
remote-fs.target - Remote File Systems
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib64/systemd/system/remote-fs.target; enabled)
Active: active since Mon, 24 Sep 2012 18:33:09 -0500; 1 day and 3h ago
