I can understand that, that is the backward compatibility problem in 
general exacerbated by putting way too much functional stuff in systemd 
binary...

And BTW, moving libseccomp libraries to /lib does indeed fix the 
problem. Can't you add a test at build time that checks that systemd 
does not depend on /usr/lib libraries? (ldd systemd | grep /usr/lib => 
automatically detect possible breakage before they really happen).
