[quote]This is not a manifest issue, it is an issue with the function that 
creates
a random temp file for ed. It appears the function does not check the 
environment
for TEMP/TMP/TMPDIR, instead writing to the root of the working
directory.[\quote]

Since this is the case I decided to install the ed package with mingw and test
it in a limited user account on Windows XP SP3. The same bug occurs and the
workaround works.

GNU ed is a line-oriented text editor. (snip)....

It is possible that an update to ed 1.5 might fix this bug.
