If you want Linux TMP and Windows TMP point to the same directory then
mount it in fstab or use $USERPROFILE/AppData/Local/Temp.
I shortened the story a bit, it's really more complicated. The TMP
definition in my case is user-crafted, not the default value which is
normally set up when a user is created in the Windows system.
Also, this approach would defeat the intended purpose of the
redefinition of TMP (avoiding permissions screwup). Or am I missing
something here?
