Agree. My feeling is the more weight should be applied to this section of the
standard:
"This directory contains system information data describing the system
since it was booted. "
Then this:
"Note: programs that run as non-root users may be unable to create
files under /var/run and therefore need a subdirectory owned by the
appropriate user."
So, I think it should only be for "system information" which means
programs like X (which might break existing statically linked
programs), but not programs like ssh-agent.
