The system property 'java.io.tmpdir' gives the name of default temporary-file
directory. Under solaris (jdk1.3.1-b08, jdk1.4.0-b40) and windows
(jdk1.3.1-b08, jdk1.4.0-b40) value of this property ends with
system-dependent default name-separator character. But under linux
(jdk1.3.1-b08, jdk1.4.0-b40) the value does not contain trailing
name-separator.

    JCK1.3a test api/java_io/File/OtherMethodsTests.html#createTempFile fails
due to this problem on:
        * linux jdk1.3.1-b08
        * linux jdk1.4.0-b40

    The following sample code and output show the problem.
    
---------------------------- test.java -------------------------------
class test {

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"));
    }
}

Adding the Slash to /tmp/ under Linux doesn't do any harm, it allows however Solaris Java applications run unmodified under Linux. This is important for SAP.
