Read-only filesystems :-) But let's check www.fhs.org:

/var/lib/: "State information should generally remain valid after a reboot,"
/var/cache/: "Files located under /var/cache may be expired in an
application specific manner, by the system administrator, or both. The
application must always be able to recover from manual deletion of
these files (generally because of a disk space shortage)"

/var/lib/ looks fine to me.

Read-only systems without nv storage should probably copy/mount
/var/lib/ to volatile upon boot.
