There also seem to be some things in ~/tmp/ That's on linux. It's worse on Win32. Lots of stuff winds up dumped in c:\. In one case, I think there were several thousand tiny directories.
On *nix I periodically clean out several hundred files from /tmp. I assume that they're created by File::Temp.
File::Temp::tempdir() makes a directory in $ENV{'TEMP'}, unless explicitly specified, so it should be a module author's fault, not File::Temp's.
