If you don't do a systemd build, you won't get any of the systemd
files.  Ditto, sysvinit (well, that's the goal - as it was an
assumption until now that needs work still).

An oe-core without *any* init system will be very cumbersome - every
service will need a bbappend to actually work, with the subsequent
maintenance costs.
