Interesting, I don't have TMPDIR set here either. We could certainly add this, although doing 3 checks with the current method (if bla do x, else if bla1 do x, else if bla2 do x) would be IMHO poor programming practice.
If we want to have 3 fallbacks, we could just support a list of fallback directories. The main problem I see here is how to test if a socket can be created in a directory without calling bind. If this could be done we could insert all this logic in socket_getaddr and revert the patch on awesome-client.c and luaa.c. Any ideas?
