it appears that /var/run/ is cleaned out in some of the init scripts... so the
udev rules fire, create /var/run/ltspfs_fstab, and then an init script later
purges /var/run.

this appears to be because ltsp-build-client sets RAMRUN and RAMLOCK are in
/etc/default/tmpfs rather than /etc/default/rcS, which is sufficient to get
/var/run and /var/lock mounted, but not sufficient to avoid purging it...

live well,
