There appears to be a bug from upstream in openswan-2.4.9. The shell script
/usr/lib/ipsec/_realsetup is missing two dollar signs starting on line 196:
mkdir -p rundir > /dev/null 2>/dev/null
mkdir -p subsysdir > /dev/null 2>/dev/null
which results in the creation of two directories literally named "rundir" and
"subsysdir".
In order to solve the problem, I propose that the contents of the following
patch be incorporated into the extant
net-misc/openswan/files/openswan-2.4.9-gentoo.patch :
diff -Naur openswan-2.4.9.original/programs/_realsetup/_realsetup.in

# the meaning of $$ at a different runtime is questionable!
perform echo '$$' ">" $lock
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Become root, change into root's home directory, and observe that there exist
no directories "rundir" or "subsysdir"
chester ~ # whoami
root
chester ~ # pwd
/root
chester ~ # ls -ld rundir subsysdir
ls: cannot access rundir: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access subsysdir: No such file or directory
2. Start openswan.
chester ~ # /etc/init.d/ipsec start
* Starting IPSEC ... ...
ipsec_setup: Starting Openswan IPsec 2.4.9... [ ok
]
3. Observe that the errant directories now exist.
chester ~ # ls -ld rundir subsysdir
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 25 21:15 rundir
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 25 21:15 subsysdir
Actual Results:
Errant directories now exist.
Expected Results:
The aforementioned directories shouldn't be created.

Fixed in openswan-2.4.9-r1, in which I left the same keywords as in the
previous revision.
The -r1 version has a pkg_preinst that tries to detect and remove empty
{/,/root/,/etc/}{rundir,subsysdir} directories. This code gets executed only if
$ROOT==/ and =net-misc/openswan-2.4.9 is installed.
Thanks!
