yes, the installation binary honors the environment variables
$TMP and $TEMP (in that order) before defaulting to /tmp.
The Makefile has
TEMP?=${WRKSRC}
to get the default to a directory where we can reasonably expect
that there's some space left.
Obviously setting one of the two environment variables to /tmp
will circumvent this default.

I'm currently at work, so can't check if it still works as expected.
If it isn't the case that you have set $TMP or $TEMP in your shell, 
please write me a short reply (even if it works by setting $TMP) so I 
can fix the package.


Cheers,

Michael
