Didn't mean at all that it was a good substitute. It's the right place
to be on Debian. I was just agreeing to your previous post plus giving
a solution for a specific platform. In my opinion, it's fine as it is
now (default value and a note to remind the user to change it) :)

Nevertheless, if you want a suggestion, perhaps the $prefix directory
set while doing the ./configure --prefix=/path/to/pgpool2 could do. Or
a subdirectory of it, come to that. What do you think? In my case it
would be /opt/pgpool2/run since I used ./configure
--prefix=/opt/pgpool2.
