Summary: Include windows default temp dir

Initial Comment:
Include os.getenv('TEMP') in attempdirs so that temp 
files by default are created per the environment 
setting.

Emile, I don't understand what the patch accomplishes for 
you.  gettempdir() already contains these lines later:

"""
.      for envname in 'TMPDIR', 'TEMP', 'TMP':
.        if os.environ.has_key(envname):
.            attempdirs.insert(0, os.environ[envname])
"""

so if you have a TEMP envar set on Windows, its value 
should already be getting prepended to attemdirs (and it 
does, on my Win2K box -- doesn't it work on your box?).

Tim, does this look reasonable to you? It does to me.
