But then there is the question on how much work it would be to port the
**systemd** implementations to FreeBSD or Hurd, if using and maintaining
those bash re-implementations is futile.
I tried to build systemd-sysusers against the FreeBSD libc, which
obviously is not going to be easy. But all the Debian arches use glibc
and problems I found where in common, but unused, code and obviously
pretty glibc specific stuff.
Did someone already try to build just those binaries e.g. on Hurd?

PPS: Yes, systemd uses alloca.
