early lid switch handling with systemd

I use an external monitor with my laptop and disable the builtin screen with video=LVDS-1:d on the kernel command line. After turning it on I close the lid as soon as systemd stuff starts scrolling down. This causes a freeze that is fixed only by rebooting after the recent systemd update. I'm forced to wait for the login prompt before closing the lid.  HandleLidSwitch in logind.conf is set to ignore. Is the new option HandleLidSwitchDocked at fault here? Help please
