From <http://markmail.org/message/e7wnq5gbgfbt25xm> by Jan Beich: 

> … /var/run/user/<UID> is managed by sysutils/consolekit2 or 
> sysutils/pam_xdg. In consolekit2 case the directory is created 
> (contents destroyed if already exists) on the first session of the 
> specific UID either via C API, DBus API, ck-launch-session(1) or 
> pam_ck_connector(8) and removed when the last session terminates. …

– and: 

>> I recreated the directory.

> Can be automated via PAM e.g.,
> 
>   # pkg install consolekit2
>   # echo "session optional pam_ck_connector.so nox11" >>/etc/pam.d/system
>   # service dbus onestart
>   $ exit # log out on VT console to re-trigger PAM
