Could you please describe why this change is needed in the commit
message? The text here is just referring to some old commit without
giving any explanation why the additional change is needed. That
reference to systemd.unit(5) was not very helpful either for me:

$ man systemd.unit
No manual entry for systemd.unit

So what does this do and why is it needed?
