Hi Lénaïc

I've added some comments about testing

As it stands this function is untested and there is no way to test it 
with the current setup. There are two difficulties with testing it (i) 
it uses conditional compilation and (ii) there is no way to fake crontab 
and systemctl with the current test setup. I think we can address the 
latter (see below) and handle the condition compilation issues using 
test prerequisites if necessary.

This loop which is responsible for disabling the existing scheduler and 
enabling a new one is completely untested. I think that before this 
patch special casing the testing above still ran the important code, 
however now we fail to test an important aspect of the business logic. 
As we can only fake one command name the current test setup is 
insufficient to fix this. I think the best solution would be to mock 
systemctl, crontab, and the other commands in the test environment.

	mkdir bin &&
	PATH="$(pwd)/bin:$PATH" &&
	test_write_script systemctl <<-\EOF &&
	# Mock systemctl, set FAKE_SYSTEMD=0 in the
	# environment to fake systemctl missing
	case "$*" in
		"--user list-timers") test ${FAKE_SYSTEMD:-1} = 1;
				      exit $?;;
		*) printf "%s\n" "$*";;
	esac	
	EOF
	# and so on for crontab etc

Then it would be possible to test the various values 
--scheduler=<scheduler> including 'auto' (by setting FAKE_SYSTEMD=0 or 
FAKE_CRONTAB=0) and that we disable cron when enabling systemd and vice 
versa. Mocking the commands would also allow us to cleanup the code in 
gc.c as it would no longer need to pass command names around.

This new command line option is completely untested
