Oh, thanks for pointing this out, I forgot $TEMP. I assume your
default mount mode is textmode as well? Anyway, since $TMPDIR
exists, it will be used by patch.

Just FYI, patch uses the following sequence:

	if exists($TMPDIR) use it
	else if exists($TMP) use it
	else if exists($TEMP) use it
	else use /tmp

Sorry, yes, I talked about binmode vs. textmode.

So everything is mounted textmode.

Thanks, I will try it,
