No.  The big problem is that, AFAWK, the FHS doesn't have /run or anything
else that is usable for the initrw ...

The only reason I didn't tag this wontfix is that I also agree we should get
rid of .ramfs if we can.  I hate failure-prone solutions like the use of
"flag files" like .ramfs.

Yep.   It also looks remarkably like something left by a break-in
or rootkit.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if this file is simply a flag that
a ramfs is mounted there, can't you get the equivalent information
from stat() or statvfs()? There's always /etc/mtab, though one might not trust it.
