A slight note of caution: I believe this particular link may cause a problem
on rebooting if the partition on which /home/tmp resides is not mounted when
/tmp is first required by any process - I seem to recall I had that once
when I was running out of space in /tmp and tried the above to overcome it.

Others, more knowledgeable than I, may be able to verify or correct this.
