If I got this correctly, the brackets in line 1797 should be removed.
Well spotted. Prior to the CR 6721753[1] fix File.getTempDir hand-coded lazy initialisation of tmpdir. It shouldn't make an enormous amount of difference: updates to the system property currently change the temp directory used; the performance degredation should be trivial.
