i just dont like constant in code, if all the linux system choose to yet
again to become 'different' and adopt /run instead of /var/run 'because
/var is not mounted' i see no reason for keepinf /var//run as a default,
but a DEFINE in config.h or even in .config would make a good deal ,
wouldnt it ?
