I just ran into this funny little problem :)
There is a package named "systemd", there is also a group named "systemd". How do I install the group with pacman? It keeps on offering me the package only:
~~~~ $ sudo pacman -Sg systemd systemd initscripts-systemd systemd systemd systemd systemd-arch-units $ sudo pacman -S systemd resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts...
Targets (1): systemd-37-2
Total Download Size: 0.79 MB Total Installed Size: 5.11 MB
Proceed with installation? [Y/n] ~~~~

Thanks, and now that I have there still is no answer except to install all the packages of the group explicitly (which can be aided by bash).
I resorted to a feature request: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27660
