Besides the other answers in this thread, you could use quota's so that any
user can use maximum 1 bytes of space in /var/tmp, except for root ofcourse.

ANd euh, don't use tmpfs for /var/tmp if you are not planning on having a
seperate /var/tmp/portage, I know you know it, but perhaps other ppl that are
diagonally reading this thread don't :)
