 That's what I meant.  I doubt that upstream would accept a patch that
removes agetty.  Maybe a patch that makes it configurable in the m4
file, but that's a lot more work to cook.

 BTW, I just noticed now that the 'normal' service definition files
are installed in /lib/systemd/system rather than /etc/systemd/system.

 That much I know :-)

 My point is: the getty at tty1.service file is removed.  Therefore, there
is nobody using the getty at .service generic definition.  At least that's
my understanding of how systemd works.  So why install the 
getty at .service file?
