I agree, just copy it to a local overlay. If a serious bug does arise,
you then have the choice of trying to persuade someone to backport the fix
from systemd or switch bootloaders.

I've no idea how tightly bootctl (as gummibot is now called after its
assimilation in the the systemd collective) is bound to systemd. It may
well be feasible to create an ebuild that builds bootctl from the systemd
sources without the rest of systemd, as is already done with udev.
