The reason I did not put a limit on it, is that I have no idea which
systems need to store data before /var/run/ is writable, and thus did
not want to put a unwanted limit on the usage from the start.

I have no problem changing the default size.  Lets do that just after
Lenny is released, to see if we break anything. :)

Happy hacking,
