Public bug reported:
Assume you have created a `.service` unit file in `/lib/systemd/system/`
with a syntax error and reboot. At system start the start of the unit
fails, but then the system/`systemd` no longer responds to
<kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Alt</kbd>+<kbd>Del</kbd> and the system needs to be
killed by pulling the plug. That can corrupt the system because services
which on shutdown hook, like a write-back cache which needs to write
data back to disks before the machine is turned of, aren't executed.
It'd be better if the errornous service/unit would be skipped, a rescue
shell provided or at least a possibility to shutdown properly given.
