I disagree. systemd simply hasn't taken libexecdir into account in

libexec doesn't exist in any published version of the FHS,
FHS != GCS
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Directory-Variables
IIRC, it's around there for at approx 20 years.
and even the
draft of 3.0 makes it clear that it's optional.
We all know about the strong positions of the FHS. It is the least
common denominator of all distros and deliberately weakly formulated ;)
Our use of libexec is
non-standard,
C.f above. I disagree.
not systemd's use of lib.
I disagree again. systemd is in its infancy and needs to do its
homework. As I see it, like many other works, they simply did not take
the GCS and the side-effects of multi-arching into account.
Now they are pressing the limitations of their design into Fedora and
are forcing Fedora to resort to cludges.
