IMHO It's not a bug, it's just different behaviour.
The problem some people/projects are hitting is that they feed an URL
from a file through URLDecoder and that will convert the plus signs
(that are now often part of the path) into spaces resulting in file
not found exceptions.
I think it's good to have it in the back of your head...

I'm not sure this is actually wrong ... the tmp folder after the
update is the new tmp folder style in Leopard. I wouldn't think
most apps would care what the tmp folder location is?

Hi,
just FYI. Java 5 Update 4 changed the default for java.io.tmpdir.
This affects File.createTempFile(...).
Previously it would create paths like:
/tmp/FOO-2946977911338389380.tmp
Now it will create create paths like:
/var/folders/Lh/LhcGbUPf2RWMKk+1YwshfU+++TI/-Tmp-/
FOO-2946977911338389380.tmp
Depending on how you use it, this can cause problems. See these

You can restore the old approach by manually setting the
java.io.tmpdir property:
System.setProperty("java.io.tmpdir", "/tmp/");
