Hi Freidrich,

could you please use a random temp folder for the build process, so I
can run multiple builds simultaneous?

Thanks.

We have to investigate this. Not a trivial task because it would be a major
compiler modification. So I don't think that we'll see this in a
maintenance build.

If you randomize the used temp folder at program startup, it should not
be necessary to modify the compiler at all.

In theory, yes <g>. But, in practice, it's a not too small compiler
modification which requires its own beta test program. The compiler is (by
design from 2001) "single-instanced".
