If 5.7 still uses ObjC++ for qstandardpaths_mac, you could use 
NSTemporaryDirectory() for QSP::TempLocation, and let QDir::tempPath() use that, 
instead of the other way round. That would remove Thiago's critique that someone 
could change $TMPDIR.

Or one could avoid QDir::tempPath() in RuntimeLocation and use 
NSTemporaryDirectory instead, if tempPath() is supposed to return $TMPDIR in 
order to be under user control.
