That would only be helpful in limited cases, and in a very different way than $OSNAME is. If your test runs somewhere in /home/user/perl5/... and this is an NFS share, it could be it fails because of the filesystem type, but it could be you actually want your Perl code to run in /opt... which is on a BTRFS device, or the other way around. So the best way is to try and handle errors more gracefully, and this could involve the use of Sys::Filesystem, maybe. Davids fix for using File::Temp->new seems quite reasonable and more elegant, though. -- Mike
