Hmm. Can we use a location with a bit more head room than the
tmp_check/data directory? Maybe something like src/test/sockets? Note
that the buildfarm's buildroot (the part of the name before the branch
name) is not terribly long in some of these cases. e.g. in the first
case it's only 32 chars long.
