Don't feel too good. There is a reason AIX is pronounced "aches" :)

I agree. Those two scripts use temporary files for other stages of their
processing, so it isn't a change from what they already do. I was
tempted to do that a month ago when I first ran across the problem of
the hardcoded cpp references. Are you going to try to do it now, or
should we wait for v6.4.1? I would think that it has a high probability
of success, with testing from just one or two people.
