(This behaviour is even documented in # Microsoft's documentation!) This often fails for ordinary users who # don't have the permissions to write in the root directory. # # We can't test for tmpfile even at runtime, since our test program # might be running with privileges that allow it to write to the root # directory, even though tmpfile wouldn't work in general. Instead, # just test for a Windows platform (excluding Cygwin). # On Android 4.3, tmpfile() always returns NULL, even if TMPDIR is set # to a writable directory.
