The reason I wasn't keen on the patch is exactly because people will
add TMPDIR into it and that can hide a number of problems which should
really be better solved in other ways. I didn't want this to become a
workaround for fixing things in the recipes.

So yes, I understand why you might want to do this, I'm still not
convinced its a good idea. There was a good reason this was hard coded
but I still haven't had the time to look more into exactly why that was
:(.

Cheers,

Richard
