`if' should be used instead of `or' here.

I do not like that the function may be called with different 
`temporary-file-directory' and I can not figure out how to adjust API to 
handle such case. On the other hand I am unsure if it is a realistic 
case when this function is called with alternating 
`temporary-file-directory'.
