There are not that many functions using the $tmp and > some of them even removes the file immediately. $ git grep -lw "^tmp=" |wc -l 484 $ git grep -lw "\$tmp" |wc -l 417 That's roughly 80% of files that use $tmp /in some way/. The tests are all suppose dto define $tmp the same way, and they are all expected to clean up after themselves, thereby making it possible to safely use $tmp in linrary functions, whether they clean up after tehmselves or not. You're spending way more time and effort than is necessary on basic infrastructure that has worked for 15 years and, quite frankly, *doesn't need fixing because it's not broken*.
