I have to agree with this. There is no /usr/tmp in Linux. If somone
does have it it's either linked to /var/tmp, or just plainly /tmp.

Should be either in the Makefile, or httpd.h file.

Damn. I changed it to /usr/tmp (from /tmp) at rst's suggestion because
of problems with tmpfs and file locking on SunOS; yet under SunOS
apache does not do file locking.

What should the default location be?
