Comment (by vbraun):

 The cache is deleted in `setup.py`, so yes this will cause problem if you
 run a Sage version that somebody else built.

 I don't care about where to put the unlink, I put it right after the mkdir
 since it is part of preparing the directory. Of course other people like
 their bike shed pink. Or are you saying that you want to clean up after a
 potential race on Windows? Feel free to implement that if you want.
 Erasing can again fail on Windows for existing files. Doesn't strike me as
 the most urgent problem either.
