    this order and return the first value that is set: TMP, TEMP, TMPDIR,
    TEMPDIR. If none are set, will look at these directories in this order
    and return the first value that is set: C:\TMP, C:\TEMP. If none are
    set, will die.

    On Unix: it first looks for one of these environment variables in this
    order and return the first value that is set: TMPDIR, TEMPDIR, TMP,
    TEMP. If none are set, will look at these directories in this order and
    return the first value that is set: /tmp, /var/tmp. If none are set,
    will die.
