If you go to the directory pointed to by the sys$scratch logical and do a
directory/security on it, you will probably find that it has world write
access. There is a bug in the test suite (that we ought to fix one of these
days) such that the test doesn't work right when this is true. It hasn't
been a high priority since it's usually not a good idea to have world write
access, especially if sys$scratch points to your login directory.
