This isn't true at all.

The reason that there's no documentation that you need to do anything
special for mountall to support /var on a separate partition is because
you don't!  You've pasted the appropriate lines from /lib/init/fstab for
/var/run and /var/lock and as you can see, they both have the
"showthrough" mount option

These causes mountall to take special action to mount /var, with these
filesystems mounted on it and under it

** Package changed: mountall (Ubuntu) => initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)
