I'd argue it's sysvinit breaking systemd, but ok :-)

I guess you don't have systemd-sysv installed, i.e. halt and shutdown
are provided by sysvinit?

As already mentioned, you can either use systemctl directly or create a
/dev/log → /run/log symlink manually.

Roger, would it be feasible if halt/shutdown could gracefully fallback
to /dev/log?
