I don't know about the context of emerging, but I do know about the
context of /var/tmp being volatile.
More specifically, /var/tmp is traditionally supposed to be non-volatile
(across reboots).
Comparatively the contents of /tmp can be volatile (across reboots).
I would advise against mounting /var/tmp on tmpfs.
