require 'tmpdir'
# Monkey patch permitting use of a world-writable temp directory
# --------------------------------------------------------------
# This is generally going to be a bad idea, as in most situations it reduces
# security. In my case, my web host uses a complicated chroot-style setup which
# they alledge relieves these security issues, and there's no user-serviceable
# way to change the permissions. Do not enable this patch unless you are
# absolutely certain this is reasonable for you.
# Based on Ruby 2.7 code at https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/67f1cd20bfb97ff6e5a15d27c8ef06cdb97ed37a/lib/tmpdir.rb#L18-L34
class Dir
##
# Returns the operating system's temporary file path.
