Subject: | pid_dir should default to /var/run |
At least on Linux, according to "man hier" pid files should go into /var/run:
/var/run
Run-time variable files, like files holding process identifiers
(PIDs) and logged user information (utmp). Files in this direc‐
tory are usually cleared when the system boots.
FreeBSD also has a /var/run directory with pid files in it.
