Indeed. I'm not sure what should be done here. The reason for the
hard-coded /tmp is that the emacsclient process and the emacs server
process may be executed from different contexts (different login
sessions for example), so it's not clear that they would use the same
$TMPDIR setting.
What do others think? Should we take the risk and obey $TMPDIR?
