Comment (by bluefoxicy):

 Permissions should be different.  /var/run should be 0755 and OLPC seems
 to have a /var/lock that's 775 and owned by root:lock.

 It seems /var/lock and /var/run need some sort of initialization when
 starting, otherwise files and directories won't exist.  Particularly
 mounting over /var/lock via fstab breaks iwconfig; mounting over /var/run
 breaks dbus.  Even with mode=01777.

 none            /tmp            tmpfs   mode=01777      0 0
 none            /var/run        tmpfs   mode=0755       0 0
 none            /var/lock       tmpfs   mode=01777      0 0
 none            /var/tmp        tmpfs   mode=01777      0 0
