In my limited experience, I think the patch most likely to be accepted is the 
one that changes existing code the least. That would mean adding to the 
practices you're observing, unfortunately. Personally, I would go with trying 
to use test.support.temp_cwd() and doing an exact string match (since it 
provides a more precise test) -- taking appropriate cross-platform measures as 
necessary.

You're welcome. I'm in the same boat as you, so I know how it feels.
