Isabel Drost commented on MAHOUT-916:
-------------------------------------

Unfortunately it isn't quite as easy - Hadoop sets that system property to pass 
configured temporary directories to a job. The variable to set is 
hadoop.tmp.dir. Currently adjusting our unit tests to pass a configuration down 
to Hadoop jobs that includes this setting.

In that process I came across a few drivers that do not pass a configuration 
object down to sub-jobs spawned (which means that user supplied options will 
not be taken into account for these sub jobs) - will open a separate issue for 
these.
