Anyway, it seems unfortunate that systemd should need to worry about filehandle sizes at all, given that (as far as I can tell) all it's really calling name_to_handle_at() for is the mount_id, so it can recognize mountpoints. Userland NFS servers were a major motivation for the filehandle code. And filehandles larger than 128 bytes aren't much use to them. Hopefully they'll be able to identify the problem and fail early on. Oh well.
