I'm aware of that, but it seems that it only changes the sequence point 
at which the systemd module is inserted into nsswitch.conf in new 
installations (replacing "files othermodule" with "files systemd 
othermodule" instead of "files othermodule systemd") and doesn't do 
anything to change what will happen in installations like Dmitry's where 
there was already a different setup in /etc/nsswitch.conf.
