Currently weston aborts if XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is unset. However the XDG base dir spec says:

"If $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set applications should fall back to a replacement directory with similar capabilities and print a warning message."[1]

This is specially problematic because of weston-launch resetting the environment (bug 61877).
