How to keep Xcode from putting 500MB in /var/folders?

Xcode 3.2 creates a large temporary file down inside /var/folders/..../-Tmp/ while it's running: I just checked, and it was using 500MB. This is a problem for me, as my boot partition keeps running low on disk space, though I have plenty of room on another partition.

Is there a way to configure where Xcode puts this temporary data? I haven't found anything relevant in the prefs or the list of user defaults.
