This is an extremely old transitional thing. I've been keeping my eye on
it. The legacy /var/run will be maintained for an extremely long time.
When the time comes, I'll make the change in Debian first. Right now,
I'd prefer hold off. It's for legacy reasons that I want to hold off
too. :P

There are still Ubuntu releases that are using /var/run. As you pointed
out - 11.04 and up are where this change took place. I want to hold off
first because of backports, and secondly because some older systems use
the newer PPA.

In short... When all currently maintained Ubuntu or Debian releases have
/run available, I will make this switch.

Also, this change will not take placed for released versions of Ubuntu.
It would have to go through the entire SRU process for a change that
doesn't really need to take place.

Thomas: Could you set this to Triaged and Wishlist in nginx (Ubuntu)?
