Distributors ponder a systemd change

I remember I have had a process going infinite on logout, but can't actually recall when - it was a long time ago. Infinite loops after getting a sighup must be easy to track down.

What I can recall happening recently is a kernel driver misbehaving. I go through the rmmod, modprobe dance. But instead of fixing it the processes using the driver hangs on some unbreakable kernel lock, and the eventual kill -9 is a complete waste of time. The only way out is a reboot of a production machine. I gather race conditions during module removal are unavoidable, and regardless there always seems to be more of them. If the systemd or gnome guys have a fix for this, no matter how bad, I promise to call it a thing of beauty.

But using this sledge hammer to cure a simple infinite loop bug, and break backward compatibility - sorry, no.
