    unixFCmd.test has similar problems

    Also macFCmd.test:

    macFCmd.test
    Test file error: can't create directory "foo.dir":
    permission denied
    while executing
    "file mkdir foo.dir"
    (file "/tmp/dist/sandbox/tcl8.4b1/tests/macFCmd.test"
    line 22)

    also ioUtil.test.

    All files *except* fCmd.test now fixed. Of course, in some
    cases the fix is just to [cd [temporaryDirectory]] where the
    test itself can't be written to be more robust, but that
    should at least get us out of our hole.

    While it would be nice to fix this, and to add the ability
    to run as many tests as possible inside a vfs, this isn't a
    high enough priority for me to get to for a while.

    Committing cheap fix of
    [cd] to [temporaryDirectory]
    and back for 8.4.5. Leaving
    open for more ambitious
    rewrites suitable for VFS.

    For the moment this has been fixed. As/when someone wishes
    to overhaul vfs stuff, this and dozens of other issues may
    need to be readdressed (perhaps as part of Andreas's
    forthcoming vfs tip?).
