- That means that the second phase of the compiler can't find the
- intermediate files left behind by the first phase. Check your TMP
- environment variable to ensure that it points to a valid directory, and
- doesn't have garbage (like spaces or semicolons) at the end of it.

- This message should never appear, btw. I'll see why it is appearing now,
- and how to make it stop. :-)
