Why do you doubt that? Check if /run is provided by some base package (I 
honestly don't remember), and if it is, you can simply delete it in 
avahi recipe do_install().

Also, don't forget to fix:
USERADD_PARAM_avahi-daemon = "--system --home /var/run/avahi-daemon \
etc.

What I am getting at is that if you are uncertain about your updates, 
don't just send off the patch to the list. Make an image, boot it, and 
verify that avahi is running, and all the directories look sane.
