There are a couple variables that modify the way tst_tmpdir() works.
This is the function that our tests use to create a temporary directory
to do their work in.  

TMPDIR - Sets the base directory that tst_tmpdir() will create a
         directory in.  

TDIRECTORY - Sets the directory that tst_tmpdir() will use verbatim.
