Subject: yet another question about gcc-2.3.3

The gcc 2.3.X problem is that gcc *generates* temp files with names
that are not unique in eight characters.  I suggested to the gcc
people that they use a subdir in /tmp instead of extending the
filenames, giving effectively 16 characters of file name and also
keeping all the files together.  I'll probably end up providing the
diffs myself, and I just don't have time at the moment.
