I have been facing 3 kind of major issues related to systemd:

a) yum upgrading from f14->f16 did not cleanup /etc/rc?.d, leaving 
dangling symlinks behind, seemingly causing systemd to get confused.
In some cases the machines fortunately came up to a point, I could 
manually clean up the symlinks.

b) Machines not coming up properly after upgrades and sending me into
- In one case, seemingly xserver failed, ... I found myself on console 
filed with systemd error messages, with no option to do anything.
- In another case, I ended up in some sort of systemd emergency shell, 
confronted with some cryptic error messages, which left me clueless (I 
know how to use an emergency shell, it's just that I had no idea what to 
do about these error messages)

c) Systemd doesn't seem to preserve existing activated services upon 
update (I recall having to manually activate cron and rsyslog).

There are other minor issues, which sporadically show up, such as some 
network related services (vsftpd, yp, named, ntpd, autofs, ...) not 
coming up after reboots, but I am not sure if it's really systemd who is 
to blame or something else.

Unfortunatly, except of the vsftpd issue, no - My fault, sorry, but when 
upgrading, I am focusing on getting the machine up again ;)
