errr.. there's also the issue of, should we actually be USING
"/opt/csw/var/run"?

it is rather different from the standard system version of /var/run,
in that the system one is tmpfs, and nuked after every reboot.

also.. why would we not use /var/run directly? we would just need to
be careful about the naming of what goes in there.
