Having support for /var/run on tmpfs used to be a release goal though I can't find it right now. Those services who create their PID files under a subdir of /var/run should first create the subdir (if missing) and later create the file. A search for 'mkdir' on /etc/init.d revealed that the following services create their directory on /var/run at startup if missing: bind9 nut proftpd ssh. I think we're talking about the same thing since you already do this check on proftpd. My only objection is that the home directory for proftpd should not be on /var/run location (you don't need to specify it any path) and *not* created by default (pass --no-create-home to 'adduser').
