This is documentation problem. The given path takes precedence over TMPDIR environment
variable (not TMP environment variable as it is in docs)
From php4/main/php_open_temporary_file.c:
/* {{{ php_open_temporary_file
*
* Unlike tempnam(), the supplied dir argument takes precedence
* over the TMPDIR environment variable
* This function should do its best to return a file pointer to a newly created
* unique file, on every platform.
*/
This makes the function behave the same way on every system.

The PHP manual states:
The behaviour of the tempnam() function is system dependent. On Windows the TMP
environment variable will override the dir parameter.
However testing the following when my TMP env variable is set to WINDOWSTMP:
print tempnam('/','z')
the result is:
C:zB312.TMP
This used to work fine in PHP 4.0.4pl1.
Thanks again, John

This should be platform dependent. On Win32 it's usually TEMP (or TMP too with later
wdozes) environment variable which specifies the location of directory for temporary
files.
TMPDIR is used on linux (maybe other *nix too, don't know - propably).
This is suggestion for implementation/documentation change.

Re: [PHP-DEV] Bug #11645 Updated: tempnam( ) does not use TMP environment variable
This is documentation problem. = This brings me to another point, since not-so-long-ago there is a phpdoc/TODO file, and we would greatly appreciate it that an entry is added whenever there is a substantial change to PHP which should be documented. Of course, it'd even better if you instead update the docs yourself ;-). Updating the TODO will increase the likelyhood that the documentation will be updated soon. If you don't have Karma to phpdoc, get it, or simply mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] This also applies to documenation problems like this one. They should IMO at least be cross-posted to phpdoc@, so the phpdoc ppl don't need to follow phpdev.

It's not so much that we can not go and view the open documentation bugs, but that due to the very tiny number of documenation bugs that are submitted, looking at it on a daily basis is a waste of time. I imagine that, the reason it hasn't happened yet is due to technical issues, but it's a very valid point. It would be best if the documenation bugs submitted were cc'ed to this list.
