Don't get me wrong, I agree with your concern about more things
depending on something that's supposed to be an init system, but that
doesn't seem to be the case here. libsystemd0 the library does not pull
in systemd the init system. libsystemd0's only dependencies are "libc6
(>= 2.14), libgcrypt20 (>= 1.6.1), liblzma5 (>= 5.1.1alpha+20120614),
multiarch-support". Although it does make me curious what systemd
functionality pulseaudio could possibly use.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of binary logs either.
