each time I make a smallish proposal I open a barrel of worms. :-(

As we already have lots of stuff in /var/run which is NO pid, including one
socket, would it be acceptable to seperate the two issues? That is, mv
/dev/log to /var/run/syslog for now, and fully define, discuss and implement
a /var/run (& friends) reorganization later? I can do the former, and I need 
it at my working place, but do NOT have time to organize or implement the
latter.
