Thanks for all the investigation. To be honest, I'm surprised that
this makes a difference. Though if you had a separately-mounted /var,
I suspect it would have been rather more broken (/run couldn't be
mounted, or it would be later hidden on mounting /var).
I'll take a look and see what might have caused the change in
behaviour, and now you've identified the cause, I'll see if I can
reproduce it on a virtualbox VM.
Thanks,
Roger
