Comment(by dj@…):
I think "huge pain" is a little overkill. I've been mindful of FHS for a
long time, specifically $remotefs (the current netfs script in BLFS) for
/usr. I had never considered /var being a remote mount. A symlink in the
rootfs /var/run => ../run should be sufficient for pid file handling as
long as the /var partition also contains the same link and /var is not
supported as a remote mount. A note should be added to the book for this
case however. As far as sysklogd, it is not started until after sysinit
anyway which is already after $localfs (our current mountfs script), and
lock files would not be needed until after $localfs is started either. I
think we are already covered with the exception of the /var/run symlink
(and that too is probably not needed on most systems until after $localfs
anyway).
