It would be easy to do it, sure, but for now it was decided not to do it. SUSE
will just follow upstream here.
There would be circular (build) dependencies with projects systemd links
against like udev and dbus.
The simple way it's done, and the names of the environment vars are
intentionally not systemd specific, and projects can implement the simple logic
in whatever way they like. The original idea was to convince the upstart
maintainer to do the same thing for socket activation.
There is no real stable API/ABI at the moment, hence there should be no C
library for others to link against.
We will get to all that eventually, especially when there will be more
complicated things to do than wrap getenv() -- but all this is unlikely to
happen in the next couple of weeks.
