If it was done by volatiles before shouldn't it be a tmpfile.d/ snippet
instead of do_install_append? /var/run gets clean on boot on a lot of systems.

Agreed.

Do you have symlink /var/run -> /run?

Here /var/run is normal directory (without tmpfs mounted there, not cleaned on boot), 
so it's enough to create it once.

Angstrom uses this:

root@beagleboneA3-0428:~# cat /etc/tmpfiles.d/var-run.conf
# empty /var/run
R	/var/run/*	-	-	-	-	-

Some apps (e.g. avahi-daemon) to clean up their old-style pid files and fail
to start every other boot. Se we let systemd clean it on boot.

Something like:

f    /var/run/utmp   0644 root root - -

Koen
