Upon closer inspection, it looks almost as if NetworkManager has
extracted code from systemd for its own internal use.  I'll continue to
look into this, but I don't expect to be able to make progress on my own
very soon, so if someone else wants to dive in and help figure out what
substitutions to make in the NetworkManager code, it would be welcome.
