Jeff's contribution has been committed to trunk, with the name
temp_directory_path().

It is now passing all tests on Windows with VC++ 8, 9, 10, cygwin/gcc
4.3, and mingw/gcc 4.5.

Ubuntu and OpenSolaris set no environmental variables naming the
temporary directory. They do seem to come with a /tmp directory
however.

So maybe for POSIX-like systems, we will have to look first for the
environmental variables, and then if not found look for specific
directories.
