I guess you mean setq.

Yes. And the debug buffer shows us

The value of of "tmpdir" is completely wrong, it must be something like
"/tmp" or so. Tramp doesn't set this connection property anymore; it
takes it from tramp-methods if declared there.

It was set like this prior commit 9ea40b3ddfb of 2022-08-15, likely your
cache did offer this old value. Could you pls apply "M-x
tramp-cleanup-all-connections" in order to clean up the connection
cache, and retry your test?

Best regards, Michael.
