Bug Description

Some tests leave their temp files/folders undeleted.
Those are annoying and fill up the disk especially on buildbots.

Unless you add an API for building the tempfiles in a specific location,
and change the tests to use that API, I can't see any way to detect leaked
tempfiles algorithmically: the best we could do is some kind of heuristic.

Please don't even *think* about monkey-patching the stdlib's tempfile module.
