This should be platform dependent. On Win32 it's usually TEMP (or TMP too with later
wdozes) environment variable which specifies the location of directory for temporary
files.
TMPDIR is used on linux (maybe other *nix too, don't know - propably).
This is suggestion for implementation/documentation change.
