The specification of XDG_RUNTIME_DIR at
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html#variables
says this:
| $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR defines the base directory relative to which
| user-specific non-essential runtime files and other file objects
| (such as sockets, named pipes, ...) should be stored. [...]
| The lifetime of the directory MUST be bound to the user being logged
| in. It MUST be created when the user first logs in and if the user
| fully logs out the directory MUST be removed. [...]
| Files in the directory MUST not survive reboot or a full
| logout/login cycle.
It explicitly says that the directory does not persist between login
sessions, whereas - at least in my understanding - an Emacs running as
a daemon is supposed to survive logout, so that the user can reconnect
to it later. (For example, I use that feature for persistent ERC
sessions.)
So, I would conclude that XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not an appropriate
location for the socket of a daemon process.
