Lennart, I've just tried your suggestion as well, but it doesn't change behavior. I'm just wondering how it would be possible to investigate the error. The message "user@xxx.service: Failed at step PAM spawning /usr/lib/systemd/systemd: Operation not permitted" isn't very descriptive. I enabled debug for pam_systemd, but it doesn't give useful information in my case.
