I am on an OS X 10.10.1 system with Xcode 6.1.  ibtool does not respect the environments TMPDIR setting, instead in my case, it wants to write to files under "/opt/.TemporaryItems/".  I mount a separate disk for Macports at mountpoint "/opt/“.  The system error log has five messages like this:

My question is, “What directory path does ibtool and/or ibtoold use for temporary items on your system?”
