makepackage leaves behind bunch of /tmp/apkg-fifo$RANDOM

Description

makepackage runs as normal user, but somehow /tmp/apkg-fifoxxxxx end-up belonging to root.

ls -la /tmp
[skip]
-rw-r--r--  1 root    root       11 Aug 27 17:17 apkg-fifo32076
-rw-r--r--  1 root    root       11 Aug 24 14:58 apkg-fifo32264
[skip]
prw-r--r--  1 root    root        0 Aug 23 16:35 apkg-fifo5218
prw-r--r--  1 root    root        0 Aug 23 16:37 apkg-fifo5581
[skip]

And every run of makepakage ends with couple of dozen lines of

rm: cannot remove `/tmp/apkg-fifo1160': Operation not permitted
rm: cannot remove `/tmp/apkg-fifo16384': Operation not permitted
rm: cannot remove `/tmp/apkg-fifo1832': Operation not permitted
rm: cannot remove `/tmp/apkg-fifo23174': Operation not permitted
...

Not a big deal, just annoying :).
