You're absolutely right here. The Subversion API doesn't use the TMP or
TEMP env variable for merges (it does for other commands, apr has a
function which returns the path to the temp folder).
I've implemented a workaround in TSVN for now, but I also just reported
the bug on the Subversion mailing list...
