Unless I find any problem, I will remove the CCACHE_TEMPDIR setting and just use mkstemp(3) to create temporary files.
After thinking about this, I will keep CCACHE_TEMPDIR. While ccache would perform better by default for caches on NFS if /tmp were to be used for temporary files, this would also open up for attacks since the temporary files need to be accessed by name (see for instance http://seclists.org/bugtraq/2002/Dec/210). Very unlikely, yes, but still a potential security problem not worth ignoring.
