I just finished installing 4.7 and want to move /var to /usr/var and
symlink it, but there is an empty subdirectory called empty
(/var/empty). It is not going away when I try to delete the /var
directory after moving it to /usr/var. It has permissions like this: 
dr-xr-xr-x root wheel 
Seems like I had to do something about a sticky bit, but don't recall
and can't find anything in the list archives about this.
Can someone remind me? And this time I'll write it down in my notebook.
