I've had this very change sitting on my disk for quite a while;
now checked in. Unless further testing uncovers anything
really bad, 5.02 should have it included.

Subject: Re: ghc uses C:\TEMP for temporary files, rather than %TEMP
I have my TEMP variable set to C:\WINNT\TEMP (Windows 2000). I do not
have a
C:\TEMP directory. However, when I run ghc on a trivial source file, I
get
ghc -o main main.hs
ghc: panic! (the `impossible' happened, GHC version 5.01):
Failed to open or write code output file C:/TEMP/ghc1644.s
Like it says in the instructions, you have to have C:\TEMP. Sorry; this is
hardwired at the moment.
GHC should use %TEMP (or better, the Win32 GetTempPath() API call) to
save
intermediate files.
That sounds like a good idea. I'll look into it. Despite being the Windows
maintainer, I'm not a Win32 expert.
