Comment 5 for bug 523484

~sigh~ Yet another bug with regard to boot-up and separate /var. Would it be at all possible for the users/developers/testers of all of this bootup (i.e. upstart, mountall, etc.) software to routinely build their (test) systems with a separate /var? This seems like an all-too-common use-case that is simply not getting tested before these releases are made for the general public to use.

I can understand bugs that get out due to corner cases, but a separate /var is far too far from being a "corner case".
