• lib/rubygems/test_case.rb: Use Dir.tmpdir for rubygems tests instead
  of ./tmp/test. Fixes [ruby-trunk - Bug #7717]

# This makes the tempdir consistent on OS X.
# File.expand_path Dir.tmpdir #=> "/var/..."
# Dir.chdir Dir.tmpdir do File.expand_path '.' end #=> "/private/var/..."

(({File.realpath})) may be your friend.

Once I drop 1.8.7 support in RubyGems I can use File.realpath. I added a note to remind myself.
