the unit are listed as soon as they are enabled, it's only (apparently)
when a sysvinit generated unit is not enabled on any level, that it is
not listed. so it is a bit confusing that sometimes it is and sometimes
it isn't listed. (also the option --all does suggest that not all usable
units are/will be shown).
