Log a bug.  systemd is very new, and if you have a somewhat-unusual
configuration (nfs over wifi, for example) it is entirely possible
that nobody has noticed a bug like this.  I was having issues with an
nfs root with dracut+systemd and I found the maintainers of both very
interested in bug reports and testing.

It seems likely that a dependency is unspecified somewhere.

As far as whether the bug is in systemd or dracut, if you have systemd
enabled on dracut then dracut will be running systemd anyway, so the
config issue will get you either way.
