I can confirm this exact issue.

Running command 'sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/networkmanager-0.9.8.8-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' fixed the issue after reboot.

According to a post on the message list by Austin Lund, it's cause systemd 209 is a dependency that's still in the testing repo.

New version of NetworkManager hit the repos, 0.9.8.8-3 and appears to be starting normally.
I had this same issue earlier tonight when upgrading to -2. Downgraded, upgraded to -3 and it's working.

0.9.8.8-3 was recently released that fixes this issue.
