Supposedly, you should enable local flags per package in
/etc/portage/package.use, but many does put it on make.conf.

Either way, if you are using systemd, you *should* set the systemd USE flag
on everything, otherwise the package in question will try to use the
non-systemd implementation (if any), and that will (almost surely) fail
under systemd.
