FWIW, the LSB workgroup is working on an update to the FHS, and this
issue is one of the primary motivations for the update.
The FHS bug linked above is where we are coordinating our work. In
addition, see the fhs-discuss thread here:
https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/fhs-discuss/2011-May/000061.html
Our conclusion seems to be, so far: /run shall exist for the same basic
purpose as /var/run historically, and its contents shall not be assumed
to be persistent.
Please comment on the FHS bug if you feel this is not sufficient or
otherwise wrong.
