You could also have just done a mkdir './tmp' if ./tmp doesn't exist
(you're probably sitting in your cgi-bin dir) and used 'tmp' or './tmp'
for your tmp dir and then set $ENV{TMPDIR} to wherever that is.
From CGI.pm docs:
To ensure that the temporary file cannot be read by other CGI scripts,
use suEXEC or a CGI wrapper program to run your script. The temporary
file is created with mode 0600 (neither world nor group readable).
The temporary directory is selected using the following algorithm:
1. if the current user (e.g. "nobody") has a directory named
"tmp" in its home directory, use that (Unix systems only).
2. if the environment variable TMPDIR exists, use the location
indicated.
3. Otherwise try the locations /usr/tmp, /var/tmp, C:\temp,
/tmp, /temp, ::Temporary Items, and \WWW_ROOT.
Each of these locations is checked that it is a directory and is
writable. If not, the algorithm tries the next choice.
