Not nice, but should work fine and not require any magic. Please test systemd git if the compat stuff works for you now.

[systemd-devel] discussions of pkg-config black magic over at gentoo
Hey guys, Thought I'd put this discussion upstream. At the moment at Gentoo [1], we're considering building without the compat-libs, but still with installing the pkg-config files, so that most out of date packages will work with a rebuild without having to patch the build system, and we won't have to ship the old libraries, which is problematic for us because we want to support ARM. So right now we're considering something like this [2] or [3]. A bit of a bummer to patch the build system like this, but we don't want to rely on IFUNC, and this seems like the cleanest solution. So I thought I'd mention this up here in case folks have opinions and such.
