It's ready to be used:
https://github.com/jpf91/systemd

But writing the bindings was really trivial, only ~12 functions and
~300 LOC(most of that documentation).

Note that there's no special function to log to the systemd log. You
have to log to stdout(for example using the standard stderr.writefln())
in a specific (but simple) format.

Also writing a daemon in systemd is actually a lot easier that the
traditional way (see
http://0pointer.de/public/systemd-man/daemon.html ), so have fun :-)
