-                <para>This function is provided by the reference
-                implementation of APIs for new-style daemons and
-                distributed with the systemd package. The algorithm it
-                implements is simple, and can easily be reimplemented
-                in daemons if it is important to support this
-                interface without using the reference
-                implementation.</para>
+                <para>These APIs are implemented as a shared library,
+                which can be compiled and linked to with the
+                <constant>libsystemd</constant> <citerefentry><refentrytitle>pkg-config</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+                file.</para>
 
                 <para>Internally, this function checks whether the
                 <varname>$LISTEN_PID</varname> environment variable
                 number of file descriptors starting from
                 SD_LISTEN_FDS_START. Finally, it returns the parsed
                 number.</para>

-                liberally licensed reference implementation sources:

-                <para><function>sd_listen_fds()</function> is
-                implemented in the reference implementation's
-                <filename>sd-daemon.c</filename> and
-                <filename>sd-daemon.h</filename> files. These
-                interfaces are available as a shared library, which can

-                file. Alternatively, applications consuming these APIs
-                may copy the implementation into their source

-                <para>If the reference implementation is used as

-                compilation, this function will always return 0 and
-                otherwise become a NOP.</para>
