All versions of mesos *should* work without systemd. The intent was to add *support* for systemd, not make it a requirement. If specific version of mesos *don't* work without systemd then that is a bug, and it would be awesome if you could share specific issues (we can make JIRAs).
The purpose of the `systemd_enable_support`flag was to prevent mesos from thinking it should use systemd utilities when systemd was available on the system (and therefore Mesos assumes it's being launched as a systemd unit). I want to make it very clear that there is no intent to make systemd a requirement :-) We would need to have a significant conversation in the community first if that were the case. I really enjoyed hearing this progress, so please do ping me on any JIRAs where systemd made this project more difficult!
