GConf, local lock and TMPDIR



Hi all, 

I got some bug reports about users using NFS home (probably with broken
stat/lock) with GConf 2.4.0, not able to login correctly after logout.

This problem is supposed to be fixed in 2.4 using local lock workaround.
Unfortunately, gconf is using g_get_tmp_dir to get temporary directory..
This is a problem when user set TMPDIR variable to $HOME/tmp (this is by
default on Mdk system)..

I'd like to force use of "/tmp" in gconf-internal.c and
gconf-sanity-check when local_lock are used.

Any opinion against this ?
