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.) thanks -- PMM
