If gc == NULL, the data allocated in the alloc_gc_buf() call in
create_temp_file or the string_mod_const call in gen_path would never
be free'd.

These functions are currently never called that way, but let's prevent
future problems.

While touching create_temp_file, also remove the counter variable, which is
never read.

v2:
 - change create_temp_file to avoid using a struct buffer (simpler)
 - add gc != NULL check for gen_path (avoid similar memleak pitfall)
