Commit 3144

["David A. Bandel" <..hidden..>]

Just looking at commit 3144:

if(-d "$tempdir"){}
else
{
my $rc=system("mkdir -p $tempdir");#TODO what if error?

seems to me, if we have an error creating a tempdir, we have a larger
problem, i.e., the filesystem where we want to create the tempdir is
mounted read-only or we don't have write permissions (which should
never happen in /tmp).

how about something like:
(-d $tempdir){ (-w $tempdir) || die "$tempdir not writable"; } ||
system("mkdir -p $tempdir") || die "cannot create $tempdir";

my $.02,

David A. Bandel
