/tmp using

[Vitaly Lipatov]

I suppose to make patch for using TMPDIR environment variable as temp 
directory if it is not empty.
There is hardcoded path to /tmp for wine server directory, and I would like to 
use ~/tmp dir...
Will it change accepted and or it is not wrong intention?

No, the server directory has to be in /tmp so that all instances use
the same lock file. If you take into account environment variables
there is no guarantee that all server invocations will use the same
value.
