Item11919: Workaround for MacOSX fails on other platforms

The bash script has this:

# Note for Mac OSX users: TeXlive 2010 prevents bibtex2html to run bibtex in a temporary directory
# http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/
# A workaround consists in telling bibtex2html to use the current directory for temporary files, using the following shell command before running bibtex2html.
#
# Note Arthur Clemens: this seems to work well on Linux as well, so $os commented out.
#
#if [ "$os" == "darwin" ]; then
   export TMPDIR=.
#fi

Somehow this does no longer work (or hasn't worked, unseen).

It works for me on linux, and I had to spend a few days discovering that, since the change has been reverted. I'm using if [ "$os" == "darwin" -o "$os"=="linux" ]; then export TMPDIR=. fi
