So this statement in the WikiP is false?

    systemd is Linux-only by design, as it relies upon features such as
    cgroups and fanotify.[6] Debian is avoiding the adoption of systemd due
    to this issue.[7]

I read an article online about some Linux constructs make it very difficult to port some software to BSD.

This included systemd, also Xfce and GNOME 3.

I figure this is why GNOME 3, out for some time now, has not yet been ported to FreeBSD ports or NetBSD pkgsrc.
