It's a

Seems reasonable. Here's the trivial untested patch:
1998-12-21 Martin Buchholz <martin(a)xemacs.org>
* files.el (temporary-file-directory): Add new variable,
compatible with FSF Emacs 20.3
How about:
(defvar temporary-file-directory
(file-name-as-directory (temp-directory)))
If the existing definition of temp-directory is considered incorrect,
that should probably be changed, rather than having both a function
and a variable, which may refer to different directories.
