We really don't want to run possibly expensive stuff on shutdown. It
needs to be as fast as possible.

The tmpwatch should probably run with idle i/o priority on startup, or
just be delayed a few minutes after the box is up.

Also, we enable it by default in /lib, and therefore the install
section does not do any good and should be removed.
