Guys, it is not that problematic to provide that temporary file information, why don't you do it? It's the simplest change you could ever do with big impact. There is no issue that is against that problem, but is it important to know the current temporary directory for software that should work on WinXX. PLEASE introduce a function or a CONSTANT, that reflects, what PHP internally knows!
