systemd-shim+logind is working fine in Ubuntu - and shutdown is pretty basic
functionality, that's expected to work.  I have recently seen some reports
(via IRC) that logind-based logout is not working from GNOME in unstable,
even when running systemd as PID1.  So there may be some bugs here, but I
have yet to receive any bug reports on the systemd-shim package pointing to
a problem with systemd-shim vs. systemd compatibility.
