* Nasty: Glibc clears the TMPDIR environment variable in setuid
  programs, so if a builder uses TMPDIR, then it will fail when
  executed through nix-setuid-helper.  In fact Glibc clears a whole
  bunch of variables (see sysdeps/generic/unsecvars.h in the Glibc
  sources), but only TMPDIR should matter in practice.  As a
  workaround, we reinitialise TMPDIR from NIX_BUILD_TOP.
