On the other hand, it is not really systemd-specific (and could be made
not Linux-specific if it wasn't using /proc/self/exe to find its own
name). It could be useful on other systems as well, as a way to turn
HAProxy into a "regular" daemon. It could also be used to simplify the
current init.d script. I could be renamed to just "haproxy-wrapper".
