Yikes!  :-(

No, nothing at all.  It looks like it is failing somewhere in systemd.

Well, I do get this from selinux:

  Jan 16 18:52:20 rover kernel: audit: type=1107 audit(1421394740.536:41175): pid=1 uid=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 msg='Unknown permission start for class system exe="/lib/systemd/systemd" sauid=0 hostname=? addr=? terminal=?'

However, I am running in *permissive* mode, so selinux shouldn't be
getting in the way:

  # sestatus | grep -i mode
  Current mode:                   permissive
  Mode from config file:          permissive

My gut is telling me that this has something to do with the selinux
message... but how can this happen in permissive mode?

Yes, this machine was probably upgraded from wheezy.  I have rsyslog
installed.

Do you know if there's a way of getting some debug out of systemd?

peace & happiness,
