I tried linking statically the "can run without systemd-pid1 tools" with
the attached patch.
Disk usage appears to increase by about 400 kb:
% dpkg --info systemd_244.1-1_amd64.deb|grep Installed
Installed-Size: 13908
% dpkg --info ../systemd_244-3_amd64.deb|grep Installed
Installed-Size: 14319
Maybe upstream can be persuaded to merge something like this?
