GetTempDir returns the contents of the TEMP or TMP environment variable.
If you get one without drive, it is what Apache passes to your CGI program.

You can also use the windows unit GetTempPath function, but that is not portable.

Maybe we can change the windows version of the GetTempDir() function to use 
GetTempPath instead.
