No you're right, it's still per worktree. I assumed
$GIT_DIR/index-helper.path points to the same $TMPDIR, but it's not.

Is relative path in sun_path portable? We could just chdir() there,
open the socket and chdir() back. Though if the current solution's
already good enough, I don't think we need to change this again.

Hmm.. googling a bit pointed me back to Jeff's patch that does exactly
that. The commit is 1eb10f4 (unix-socket: handle long socket pathnames
- 2012-01-09). It does not mention Mac though, neither does the
related discussion on mailing list..
