I assume you mean as a link to a windows temp directory somewhere. However,
what if that gets changed by someone? Suddenly a lot of stuff starts
breaking, and people start posting here asking why application foo isn't
working. The majority of the people are fine with a hardwired /tmp

His request was to _not_delete_a_symlink_he_made_himself and replace it
with a directory named /tmp.
It doesn't delete the link, it just makes a directory
What's worse - is after it makes the directory, for some reason, the
existing tmp.lnk doesn't work anymore, so I have to delete it, and then
remake it... then I can resume my common practice of cp mtmp.lnk tmp.lnk

I do something similar symlink thing depending on what net server /net/mdc is on. I
think setup should check if /tmp.lnk or a /tmp mount-point exists and skip the
creation of a /tmp dir if so.
