I certainly don't think we should be fixing this in every package that
uses sendsigs.omit.d.

The convention in Ubuntu has been to use /var/run rather than /lib/init/rw for 
these things.
I can easily add /var/run/sendsigs.omit.d/ support to sendsigs, and I've done 
so in my local tree, but I don't really feel like playing whack-a-mole to move 
all the users over to that directory, and having /var/run/sendsigs.omit on the 
one hand and /lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d/ on the other seems wilfully 
confusing.

I've asked Scott if he'd object to a new mounted-libinitrw.conf job in
mountall that just does 'exec mkdir -p /lib/init/rw/sendsigs.omit.d'.  I
think this would be the easiest fix.  (Note that, since /lib/init/rw is
a mountpoint, we can't just ship the directory in the initscripts
package.)
