Applied, with one minor change. You should never use something like
/tmp/b in a test script becuase it's possible that /tmp/b might
already exist, and might be not even owned by the user. (In my case
/tmp/b was a root owned file that was sufficiently big that it it
caused ea_set command to fail with a "out of space" error.)
If /tmp/b was writable by the user and was something previous, then
the developer might get after the test script executes "rm -rf /tmp/b".
