In 1.13, we've removed the variable from /etc/conf.d/rc and it's now

From a filesystem usage point of view though, storing actively changing
state data on /lib is ugly. The tmpfs /lib/rcscripts/init.d overlay
solution for a ro / works, but as long as tmpfs magic is needed, can't it
be written to /var after localmount?
It could be written to /var at the end of an rc.
However, you then have to guarantee that /var is always available too and that
may not always be the case as some people want to have /var net mounted or
something equally silly :)
/lib may be ugly, but it's also guaranteed which is what I'm more interested
in.
Thanks
This screams "vustomizable"
Just give us a variable we can set to move it; obviously there is no
"One True Location" for everyone.
