Ah, found it. orbit has been patched to honor TMPDIR (#42615), and
libgnorba hasn't:
orbit-0.5.17/src/orb/orb.c:190:
g_string_sprintf(tmpstr, "%s/orbit-%s", g_get_tmp_dir(), g_get_user_name());
gnome-libs-1.4.2/libgnorba/orbitgtk.c:133:
name = g_strconcat ("/tmp/orbit-", pwent->pw_name, "/cookie", NULL);
Untested patch below. (Like orbit, it uses g_get_user_name(), which
may return a different value from getpwuid().)
