The funny thing is that libsystemd _used_ to be split into several different libraries. I certainly remember libsystemd-journal (which is presumably the part of libsystemd that pulls in liblzma) being separate to libsystemd-daemon (which is the part that implements sd_notify, as used by OpenSSH [after patching by distros]). If that split had never happened, then liblzma wouldn't have ended up being linked into sshd...
