temporary items

I have a script, "Script Bundle Tool", that I've been using for years without any problem.
It contains this line ...

set tempRef to (path to temporary items)

Today, while working in Lion, I encountered a problem that took way too long to identify.
Finally, I discovered a hint and changed the line to ...

set tempRef to (path to temporary items from user domain)

This seemed to fix the problem. (This could have been a big problem, since Script Bundle Tool compiles itself!)

The first line returns

alias "OS_X:private:var:folders:eJ:eJwmSk7uFauWoGY2A+8Sok+++TI:-Tmp-:TemporaryItems:"

Does Lion have a problem with this?
