All, I think we should support the /run directory [1] [2]. The issue is that there are at least two packages, udev and dracut, in gentoo, which support the use of this directory. Support for it is being worked on in openrc, and systemd will use it once it comes into the tree.
For now, it is optionally supported in udev, but udev upstream plans to make this mandatory at some point in the future. I, as well as several others, believe we should proactively create this directory in a new release of baselayout, so that we will avoid bugs in the future when packages start requiring it. What does everyone else think? William [1] https://lwn.net/Articles/436012/ [2] http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361349
