Mike,

Deletion of inter-process communication objects on user logout by systemd(8), 
eh? I knew there was a reason some developers don't like systemd(8).

Sorry you were the guinea pig on this one. At least your sacrifice won't be in 
vain. See <https://github.com/Unidata/LDM/issues/62>.

And thanks a bunch for sending this in.
