The permissions are correct:
drwxrwxrwt 19 root root 2048 Jan 6 14:07 /tmp/
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 1024 Jan 6 14:07 /var/tmp/
I was running CGI.pm version 2.56. After I reverted back to 2.46, make
test worked. Not sure what other versions between 2.46 and 2.56 works
also. I don't really have time to track down the reason. But if anyone
finds out, please let me know.
Thanks
