So what bothers me about this (and the original patch) is that TMPDIR has special meaning to bitbake and the conflict with patch's temporary directory is unfortunate. Maybe a better solution is to change meta/lib/oe/patch.py to set TMPDIR when invoking patch so the changed TMPDIR is constrained to the patch process and nothing else.
