is this really an issue? upstart (and systemd probably too) work best
with non forking daemons so that the pidfile hack is not needed anymore.
systemd doesn't care about PID files. If daemons still write them it's
fine, but they don't matter.
I think what's more interesting here is socket creation in
/var/run. i.e. it's the primarily used place to put client communication
sockets of system daemons.
