That patch looks good, how soon can it land? ;-)

I'm sure there's still something in the build that is creating
temporary files in /tmp. I'm not sure which process is doing it, I
have no reason to suspect it's the kernel tools (in fact I think it
happens too early in the build to be the kernel tools), and the tmp
files that are created are named with temporary names (e.g.
/tmp/tmp.2wavbhTlDU) so they shouldn't interfere with multiple users
building on the same machine. Each build appears to create two such
temp files that aren't cleaned up at the end of the build. Not a big
deal. I don't think it's something new that was introduced recently
(but I'd have to do more investigation to verify).
