What I did :
clean /tmp/
./g pull -r
make dev-install
-> 459 temp files left
clean /tmp/
make check
-> 461 temp files left
clean /tmp/
make check in .../sw
-> 423 temp files left
clean /tmp/
make check in .../sc
-> 11 temp files left
Another thing: make creates a temp dir in /tmp but never uses it, it
remains empty during the build. The name of this tempdir is a 6 random
alphabetical characters word. It is not removed when the build is completed.

Hmm I am afraid that this is too difficult for me. Anyway I tried the
command 'strace -f -s 256 -o /tmp/slog make check' in .../sc. Then
exploring the slog file I found that several temp files are created and
removed. Temp files are created in alphabetical order.
In that case the first temp file is opened in a process with PID 32088.
The first line with this PID is :
execve("/home/jbf/LibO/master/solver/unxlngx6.pro/bin/cppunit/cppunittester",
["/home/jbf/LibO/master/solver/unxlngx6.pro/bin/cppunit/cppunittester",
"/home/jbf/LibO/master/workdir/unxlngx6.pro/LinkTarget/CppunitTest/libtest_sc_ucalc.so",
"--headless", ... (very long command)
2 lines before this one there is
32087 clone(child_stack=0,...) = 32088
Hope this helps
Best regards.
