Looks like the systemctl links are gone but not the pm-utils ones

I sat down with Emilio and had him review (big thanks!) my patch and
while he thinks that my problem analysis and diversion management will
now work, he figured another problem.

A major change is that we now rename the diverted files in the same
directory rather than keeping the name in a different directory to avoid
breaking symbolic links. Unfortunately, systemctl uses the program name
to figure out what it should be doing and it has no clue what
"halt.no-molly-guard" is supposed to mean. So when we run the original
program, we need to now run it with exec -a $cmd $cmd.no-molly-guard. I
don't have time to update the patch right now. Let me promise an update
this week, ok?

Helmut
