  This one I am not sure about either... It does sound like a good

    '#if defined(linux)' it?

  - looking briefly, it looks like at least Solaris 10 also does the
    /var/run thing... Are there any Solaris people that think this
    should be done on that platform by default too?

  - *BSD's?  What are they doing these days?

  I don't want to add this particular patch as-is (at least for 1.9.1)
  since it will affect all OS's.  I think it would be ok with an 'if
  defined(linux)' though.


Yes, it shut be an solution for all OS's.
I thing the file can put at /var/run on all Unix like OS's.
Or have someone other voice?
Solaris 8 has /var/run. Good. But it's not user writable, and I do my own local install with everything running as me, not root, so this won't work for me. 

Of course, I'm still using nas 1.7 (or earlier?) because it just works. :-)
