That sounds unlikely. systemd doesn't touch service files from other
packages.

Are you sure this was actually systemd which unmasked the services?

Can you reproduce the problem (e.g. by re-installing systemd or
downgrading and upgrading systemd again)?

I did have masked services before the upgrade from 208 to 215 and they
were not touched, as expected.
