New Revision: 228924
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/228924

Log:
  In POSIX.1-2008:
  
  P_tmpdir [OB XSI]  Default directory prefix for tempnam().
  
  This macro is used in a lot of places in legacy applications,
  and is why we see a lot of programs written for e.g. Linux
  store volatile temporary files in /var/tmp and not /tmp.
