severity 389010 critical
thanks

eclipse filed 500MiB and goes into an endless loop if it can't write new
files. Many machines will not have this amount of free space available
and it a denial of service against other tools which needs some
temporary bytes in /tmp. Also it is not possible to use TMPDIR to use
another directory. So it breaks unrelated software.
