On my system this is just a symlink.
I had another look at the code and maybe your problem is the ordering of the 
two createSocketDirectory() calls.
And maybe the case of createSocketDirectory( link, tmpl ) could return tmpl.

Right. As I said it is already effectively in tmp on my system, so maybe it is 
just a matter of using the actual path instead of the symlink based one?
