Nothing obvious, afaict - but if you connect to your database, and run

SELECT * FROM pg_settings WHERE name = 'temp_file_limit';

you should be able to see where (which file and line, if any) the setting's
value is read from.

(You might want to switch to "Extended display mode" in psql, issuing "\x"
first, to improve readability.)

Hth!
