I happened to look in $TMPDIR today. The directory had *hundreds* of odd
files and directories. Poking around a bit, I deduced that parrot's 'make
test' is mostly to blame. At least some of the files were put there by
t/configure/044-slurp_file.t
I haven't figured out what's creating the other things yet. One
directory appears to contain a complete copy of MANIFEST.
Other directories contain lib/Parrot/Config.pm, lib/Parrot/Revision.pm,
and DEVELOPING. Still other directories are empty, but their timestamps
match up with directories left behind by parrot.
Anyway, I lost quite a bit of time cleaning out all those files and
directories. Parrot's test files should clean up after themselves.
