Comment(by leif):
Still, the best thing is to not create temporary files at all.
(And only dump what would have been written in case of doctest errors,
once at the end, with the "same problems", though identical filenames
would there be even more unlikely, and could easily be numbered.)
But that's probably for another ticket; we should IMHO here only
''quickly'' fix the most prominent errors, namely identical filenames
within the ''same'' `ptest`[`long`] instance. If we also allow
simultaneous testing of the same or different Sage installations, that's
ok, but a pretty minor issue, because -- in contrast to the former -- you
can trivially avoid race conditions between such concurrent `ptest` runs.
(And a normal user wouldn't do the latter either.)
