gpg-agent (2.0.7) hardcodes usage of /tmp directory

Hi,

I've been fiddling around with pam_mktemp in Gentoo, which creates a
private temporary directory per each user in /tmp/.private/$username,
and sets the TMPDIR variable accordingly.

Unfortunately gpg-agent ignores the TMPDIR variable entirely and always
create its socket in /tmp.

Would it be possible to make it respect TMPDIR instead? I think this is
what the GNU coding standards suggests already, by the way.
