Also if creating in /tmp/ it's nice to use an obviously qemu-testing
related filename. If a 'make check' run falls over partway through it
is prone to leaving files un-cleaned-up in /tmp/ and it's much easier
to know you can just delete them if they're named 'qtest*' rather
than just 'tmp*'...

(Ideally we'd put in some more consistent framework for temp files
used by tests to put them all in a single subdir or something, for
convenience in cleaning up afterwards.)
