/var/run is a tmpfs these days, I think and its been reasonably common
for distros to clear it out on boot more or less aggressively for some
time.

I think the xencommons initscript should be made to mkdir /var/run/xen
on every boot, or everything in Xen which needs it needs to be made to
mkdir it as necessary (which would be a pain).

Can you knock up a patch to add the mkdir to the initscript please?

Ian.
