Comment(by leif):
I'd rename the function (as it creates a temporary ''directory''), and not
use a global variable for the "return value".
The function could either take the variable name as its parameter (such
that `sage_make_tmp_dir DIR` assigns the directory name to `DIR`), or just
"echo" the result (as `mktemp` already does), such that one writes
`DIR=sage_make_tmp_dir` or whatever.
