journal is part of systemd and will be enabled.
It doesn't change anything to *syslog*, compared to older systemd release : as long as *syslog* implementation were using .service and socket activated (this should be ok since 12.1, see http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/syslog but I'm not sure data there is up to date with journal ), they will still work as expected, with data from journal being forwarded to *syslog* through syslog socket.
So, what you're saying is that journal is an additional logger that will run in parallel with the "normal" syslog.
From my understanding, "normal" syslog is not installed any more by default. It is only needed if central log collection is necessary, as journal is a local only solution. Or if advanced features, like launching external applications, logging to a database, parsing messages, etc. are necessary.
