Which shell?

Why not mkdir -p, or even better, AS_MKDIR_P?  That is, if $TMPDIR already
exists, you've failed this test.

> -  # skip if we cannot create such a file or directory

Oh, I see.  It was code motion, of something that already assumes that
"$dir" and "$TMPDIR" must not exist prior to that point.
