What's the point of caring about security for a legacy app if nobody
is going to fix it if a security problema arises?
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/admin/libpam-tmpdir
is good enought IMO
BTW. Also it will be good say something about storing unix sockets by
system programs (/tmp/x-windows/.X11-unix which is owned by root.root) in
/tmp.
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#REQUIREMENTS14
says about /var/run:
"System programs that maintain transient UNIX-domain sockets must place
them in this directory."
