No, it looks like Maxima=E2=80=99s build system erroneously strips out part=
 of
the directory name.  In that case, passing TMPDIR=3D/tmp seems right.

Pushed with some tweaks: I=E2=80=99ve added a copyright line for you (let me
know if it=E2=80=99s wrong), replaced tabs with spaces (if you use Emacs, t=
he
.dir-locals.el normally ensures that), and moved parts of the commit log
above to comments in the source (info "(standards) Change Log
Concepts").

Thank you!
