Ah, I failed to install pam-devel before I compiled systemd. So I found these errors in the journal with this knowledge: Feb 14 09:01:57 fedora21.exerciseforthereader.org systemd[1]: Cannot add dependency job for unit org.freedesktop.resolve1.busname, ignoring: Unit org.freedesktop.resolve1.busname failed to load: No such file or directory.

I suppose the fact that "systemctl --version" showed that PAM was not installed should have alerted me.
