Hey guys,
   I could've sworn I mentioned this before, but a quick search of the
newsgroup doesn't show it. Anyways, P_tmpdir (stdio.h) being equal to
"c:/" seems like a bad idea in general, and in particular it makes
some things fail on Vista (e.g. mkstemp used for
shell-command-on-region in ZILE). Don't most tools already assume that
at least %TEMP% is defined? So why not change this to "/dev/env/TEMP/"
instead? ("c:/" might not even exist!)

          char tempfile[] = "/dev/env/TEMP/ziXXXXXX"; // P_tmpdir "/zileXXXXXX";
          int fd = mkstemp (tempfile);
