/www is the default lighttpd document root, where the web sites are
stored, so putting them in a tmpfs would be very wrong indeed.

Why does lightttp need write access?  If it's putting logs in there
Yes. Exactly the log issue.

After some thinking, I think I'll just drop this patch.
Because even if I move the log location to /var/log/xxx, it will not make the situation any better, as the /www directory is still not writable.
So I think, at this point, we should not do too much.
I'll assume that if the user is using a read-only rootfs and his system is holding a website, maybe he'll just mount some writable media to /www.

then they should be in /var/log, PIDs in /run and so on.
