Hi,

I checked a bit further, this was a source of a lot of strange bugs back then;
I guess even upstream was fed up with those and added
"RequiresMountsFor=/var /tmp /var/tmp" in basic.target.

https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/49d7fc99b939aa9e6601abb2d871f3ef78dc90f5

Maybe that's just a stop-gap that can be changed again when someone will want to
boot it's computer 0.4 second faster, so it's allways safer to have a specific
RequiresMountFor=/var/$something for each service;
even it it's now translated to a no-op.
