No, no cases I know of,
So, I leave you to decide whether to keep it or not

As talked with gentoo @systemd team, it's conventional to use
"--with-systemdsystemunitdir"[1]
and I think it's would be slight better/explicitly to pass the unit
directory via  --with-systemdsystemunitdir=/my/unit/dir/?current logic
is "--with-systemd systemddir=/my/unit/dir/"

I would have no problem if you insist not to change anyway..
