Test CVE-2012-2944

Traceback (most recent call last):

AssertionError: Found /var/run/
I often have to retry the package test two or three times before it succeeds, particularly when the test machines are busy. So either the test isn't right, or the security issue that it's supposed to fix isn't really fixed?

*sigh*, this test is impossible to satisfy, I now got ~ 15 failures in a row and this is holding up other packages. This has been ignored for 4 months, taking bug now.
