Warn when XDG_RUNTIME_DIR isn't set, as per XDG Base Dir Spec

http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html
says: "If $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set applications should fall back to a
replacement directory with similar capabilities and print a warning message."

Better warn that not all the guarantees of XDG_RUNTIME_DIR are available,
and push unixes who haven't done so yet, to set things up correctly.
