This doesn't work if /var/run exists and is a symlink:
Installing subdir /home/pbonzini/ff/run to
/home/pbonzini/ff/build/test/var/local/run

Since DESTDIR is not available, there isn't really a good way to do
this check. We can:
- keep the makefile
- use an install script
- create it in qemu-ga just like on win32
Probably the last one is the best.
