If you want to test systemd, you don't need to use my overlay; and
actually, I would not recommend it: it's made thinking for people
already using systemd.

Just follow the wiki instructions: http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Systemd

I don't want you to get the wrong idea because of my possible
mistakes: use systemd for Gentoo as the Gentoo devs have planned it.

Regards.
