Interesting, thanks. Seems like the most robust thing to do is to not
use /tmp/ after all.
That will cause performance regressions on systems that mount /tmp in RAM.
Subtle point, thanks.
On the same topic, I think I found where the intermittent test failures
are: https://github.com/dlang/phobos/blob/master/std/file.d#L3312
There, we list the full content of /tmp, recursively. That's not quite
the right thing to do. Not only the run time is arbitrarily slow, but
the test may file if certain subdirs are inaccessible. Vladimir, maybe I
can convince you to find a better solution for that, too? :o)
