Summary: TempFile fails to delete the file if inside a Dir.chdir block

Initial Comment:
Latest Cygwin with Ruby 1.8.5-3 on Win XP Pro SP 2.

TempFile fails to delete the temporary file it creates, if working inside a Dir.chdir block:

# Doesn't work

Dir.chdir("./dir") do
   Tempfile.open("johndoe", ".") {}
end


# These work fine

Tempfile.open("./dir/johndoe", ".") {}

Tempfile.open("dir/johndoe", ".") {}

Tempfile.open("johndoe", "dir") {}
