Thanks for confirming this. It seems this indeed works on Linux and other
Unix-like OS, but apparently it never worked on Windows (mingw). There, the
temp directory gets filled over time with all the gnucash.trace.ABCDEF files.
Seems like we need a completely different implementation of this for the
G_OS_WIN32 part.
