The actual file is copied out to /tmp, presumably so that the tester
can inspect it after the test is done, which may have been a useful
debugging aid.

But in the final shape of the test suite, such a code should not
exist.  We cannot even assume that we are allowed to write into /tmp
(our TMPDIR may not even be pointing at it) or read from it for that
matter.
