Why would a program complain that it cannot create a file in /tmp,
while /tmp is really my privite 'tmp' directory bound to the root?
Could it be the filesystem permission nuances or program issues?

hello
the default profile ($home/lib/profile) binds your $home/tmp to /tmp, but if
the former doesn't exist the bind fails and /tmp is not writable, running
/sys/lib/newuser is a good idea when creating users as $home/tmp is not
created by default afaik.
