The problem was fixed when I renamed /tmp to /oldtmp and then did a symlink from /tmp to /usr/tmp so all /tmp files actually went into /usr/tmp - There are probably complications doing this if you ever have to run in single-user mode - but you could always put /tmp back if needed - just an idea - In my case with realplayer - maybe I have the same / or a different problem as you - but I tried my previously successful idea with no resulting fix.
