Hmm, let me see if I get this right: with this patch applied we'd build
cap and selinux support into libsystemd-basic.la, but we wouldn't link
against the respective libraries but instead do that in the binaries
which pull in the .la?

I am not sure I like this. I mean, I understand the goal, and it's a
good one, but I think if we do this we should do this properly, and
split up util.c so that the stuff that uses caps and selinux is
independent of the rest and can be pulled in individually as needed.

I'd be happy to take a patch for that!

Or did I misunderstand the patch?
