Well, the sdist command has to run on some directory where some files exist, 
right?  So it’s better to do it in a temp dir that will automatically get 
cleaned up.

You should read the docs for MANIFEST and sdist: a MANIFEST without the magic 
comment will not get overwritten (unless there’s a bug :)
