Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:

I recently added (and even more recently fixed) the "--tempdir" option for 
libregrtest, so that can be used to specify a temporary location for *most* 
tests. Some still ignore that setting (notably distutils), but it's a starting 
point.

I agree that tests need to be cleaning up completely after themselves, but when 
they fail it's often better to leave the files behind for investigation. Having 
buildbots clean up completely seems fine to me.
