--- Comment #4 from Jakub Jelen <jje...@redhat.com> ---
Colin, the -D was omitted (and Type=Forking added) because systemd was
unable to report failures (when configuration file had an error), as
described in the Red Hat bugzilla [1].

Certainly, the -D makes more sense these days, but with that, typing

  systemctl restart sshd

is not producing any error with -D option. Also no error goes into the
journal (as in the description of the linked bug).

The one solution is "letting that particular camel's nose into the
tent" as used in Ubuntu/Debian, but I still hope, there is a better way
to do that.

Clearly, what I am trying to point out here is that the applied change
is modifying the behavior not only for re-exec (reload), but also for
the "start", which was not intentional to my understanding.
