Comment(by hamish):

 ok so for the wxGUI temporary image files:

  * {$TMPDIR|%TEMP%}/ is where we are (spamming) now
  * $MAPSET/.tmp/ is out as it might be NFS'd and too laggy for GUI needs
  * `dirname $GISRC` is out as $GISRC might be custom set to anything
  * {$TMPDIR|%TEMP%}/grass$VER-$USER/ is out since can't safely clear
 during concurrent sessions

 how about {$TMPDIR|%TEMP%}/grass$VER-$USER-$PID.gui/, falling back to
 {$TMPDIR|%TEMP%}/ if that wasn't set during init.sh/init.bat? (I'd rather
 not have the additional enviro variable just for it)

 or check what `dirname $GISRC` looks like, and if it begins with
 $TEMPDIR/grass$VER-$USER-$PID/, use that, if not fall back to $TEMPDIR?
