Re: [gentoo-dev] /var/tmp world rwx?

[Kevin N. Carpenter]

Thats cool.  Easy enough to mount both /tmp and /var/tmp as tmpfs with 
my noexec,nosuid,nodev options.

Mounting /var/tmp/portage with just "nosuid, nodev" requires the mount 
point to exist, which it won't as a freshly mounted tmpfs filesystem.  
Still, easy enough to fix in local.start.

Thanks!
