I stand by the patch file I previously submitted on 2016-05-04. A more detailed
analysis / description of my reasoning follows.
Change 1 in _get_default_tempdir:
A PermissionError is thrown on Windows if you attempt to create a file whose
filename matches
Billy McCulloch added the comment:
I've also run into this bug on Windows. In my case, the tempdir path includes
directories on a network share, which I lack write access permissions to.
Python tries to generate a *lot* of files, and never figures out it should move
on to another dire
