Hi Bill, Your patch looks fine to me. I have no objection to /run/shm being excluded at this time--it's still early days for /run, but I think it's more appropriate than /dev, and we'll see if other distributors pick it up. It has been mentioned in the context of the FHS, but will not be included at present, though /run and /run/lock will be. There are other non-standard uses of /run such as /run/user by systemd which should probably also not be included at this point, and which likewise are not in the current FHS draft.
