An infection seems to be spreading in systemd. First
I saw dhcpd taking forever to shut down:

Now I just saw the exact same thing with the apache
httpd service.

I found the systemctl --no-ask-password option, so
I tried it, now it no longer forks and execs the
password-agent process, it merely sits like a lump
timing out for the same amount of time.

Anyone have any idea what leads systemd to decide
it needs to wait for some mysterious something
when stopping some services? And why is the number
of these mysterious services growing? (Does this
have something to do with me not using NetworkManager?)
