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.
