Thirded. Please keep things sorted the way *nix was intended to be!

Put them in /proc (or /tmp if really need be (but then beware of cron
jobs that clean up the place every now and then (and I don't want to
get *any* error messages out of those because of the fs not knowing
about these pipes))). Whatever, do *not* put them in /.
