I've never had to worry about the files in there. I suspect it'll
get removed when you reboot, if you don't remove it yourself. In any
case, the files in that directory are all 0 bytes long -- it's just
their names that matter. So replacing it would be simple, if for some
reason removing it causes an issue. (Which I seriously doubt it will.)
