Actually, according to systemd-system.conf(5), it looks like the
proper place to do this is with a file under
/usr/lib/systemd/system.conf.d, similar to the old rc.d init files.
Presumably that will avoid the setting being overwritten by a new
install.
Well, that was a bust. Turns out that you do have to edit the standard
file(s) to have any effect.
It works for me.
Did you specified the [Manager] tag in the drop-in file ?
Example:
## Weird: systemd seems to uses internally a ...USec name for that
systemctl show --property=DefaultTimeoutStopUSec
DefaultTimeoutStopUSec=1min 30s
mkdir /usr/lib/systemd/system.conf.d
echo -e '[Manager]\nDefaultTimeoutStopSec=5s' >
/usr/lib/systemd/system.conf.d/99-stop-fast.conf
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl show --property=DefaultTimeoutStopUSec
DefaultTimeoutStopUSec=5s

This reminds me SO much of reading old IBM Red Books. You must
thoroughly understand the *footnotes* to Chapter 22 before you can
actually understand the third paragraph of Chapter 2.
(Cannot now remember whether that was OS/2 or REXX... Lost to human memory.)
And also reminds me why Linux can be considered a cult, as there are
arcane and unknown rules controlling how things work.
