I tried it, and it fixes the problem as I reported.
Of course, chdir into /tmp is a bit risky as any file creation
before the next chdir would be susceptible to the same problem, but
I assume you made sure this won't happen.
BTW, when looked at the changes made, I noticed this:
io.stdout:write('cannot cd into '..d..'\n')
I don't know much about Lua conventions, but normally I'd expect
such messages to be written to stderr, not stdout.
