Jeroen Massar is not listed as maintainer of the aiccu package and I
don't see any explanation which would hint at a bug in systemd. Therefor
re-assigning back to aiccu.

From a quick look at the package, it seems to install a init script
which depends on $network and an if-up.d hook which restarts the aiccu
init script as part of /etc/init.d/networking.
/etc/init.d/networking itself provides $network, so there is a dead
lock, since systemd evaluates dependencies at runtime.

Reinier, if you need help with getting this sorted out, please contact
the pkg-systemd team.
Is there a reason, aiccu needs to be restarted on ifup? Does it need
that to pick up new network interfaces?
The better fix is, to make aiccu network hotplug aware (e.g. via
rtnetlink) [1]. This would also mean, aiccu would work better ootb with
other networking tools or if the network is configured manually.
