Hi

Since it happens when after calling FileSystem >>#writeStreamOn: , I halted it there on both Pharo version and I got these values:

Pharo 4:
 FileReference path = RelativePath with value 'github-dalehenrichfiletreeissue142134338868022738279896609523701.zip'
  which calls FileSystem writeStreamOn: self path
 FileSystem workingDirectory = AbsolutePath with values 'C:' 'Users' 'User' 'Pharo' 'Pharo40'

Pharo 3:
 FileReference path = AbsolutePath with values 'tmp' 'github-dalehenrichfiletreeissue142.zip'
  which calls FileSystem writeStreamOn: self path
 FileSystem workingDirectory = AbsolutePath with values 'C:' 'Users' 'User' 'Pharo' 'Pharo30'

Notice Pharo 4 uses relative path and Pharo 3 absolute path to that zip.
But since it works in Pharo 4 right, I think it might have been a bug in Pharo 3 which was noticed and fixed.

Does on machine have a /tmp folder and the other doesn't?   Windows
sometimes gives that error when it can't create a file.
