     So, IIUC, it's in systemd-build that kdbus is no longer 
compile-time optional*;*in kernel it's an optional module. I admit, 
though, that Poettering is putting high pressure to freedesktop and to 
the distros. But for now they can leave with their module and don't need 
the agreement of the kernel team.
