Well that, and the linker seems to want systemd as well:

$ objdump -p /usr/lib/syslog-ng/libafsocket.so | grep NEEDED
  NEEDED               libsyslog-ng-3.3.6.so
  NEEDED               libsyslog-ng-crypto.so
  NEEDED               libssl.so.1.0.0
  NEEDED               libcrypto.so.1.0.0
  NEEDED               libsystemd-daemon.so.0    <-- o hai
  NEEDED               libpthread.so.0
  NEEDED               libc.so.6
