I get the impression that directly hardcoding /tmp/ usually indicates

How about a lintian complaint at info/pedantic level called
source-package-name-doesnt-match-binary-package that triggers on
single-binary source packages and where the binary name doesnt look

Personally I think this is completely the wrong approach to take for
compiler hardening flags. The flags should be enabled by default in
upstream GCC and disabled by upstream software where they result in
problems. The compiler hardening flags have been tested over N years
by RHEL, Fedora, Ubuntu,
Sounds like a win to me.
The tools that might need changing:
debmirror
apt-file
