* 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.
