Thanks, the choices seem to be:

1. LoginKit (logind compatible api on top of ConsoleKit2) - not yet working
and development apparently postponed for now.

2. systemd-shim (limited support for some of the systemd apis) - development
halted

3. systembsd (a reimplementation of the systemd apis portable to BSD
distributions) - I don't use bsd

..which is why I'm using consolekit, which the gnome wiki says should work
for 3.16.x :)
