The devuan policy about systemd shims and systemd in devuan as been already 
exaustively discussed many times, and can i reassume it as follow:

Devuan will not work to support systemd and will not work against it. We will 
not do any effort to support it, if someone want to work to package it in a way 
where it works WITHOUT needs support for any other package depending on it, we 
will consider to add it as an option, but we will NOT accept it if it ask us to 
put it in dependency tree.
As for how it work, this policy put effectively it in the "we will not support 
it" list ad systemd without dependecy to it is like vaporware.

For shims, we will not introduce shims, as the work to trace abi from systemd 
components make it just a shit. We will optionally consider to reimplement some 
funcionalities we consider usefull from systemd, but in a unix/kiss way, so, 
probably without dbus, or not compatible with systemd: we want to have the few 
good funcionality that are present in systemd, but we want them better 
implemented.
