[GNC] Move working files

I haven't done a lot of customization with my GnuCash system.

My data file - MyData.gnucash is in the same directory as what I call the
"working" files -- the MyData.gnucash.<timestamp>.gnucash and the
MyData.gnucash.<timestamp>.log files.

Is there some way that these working files can be created in a separate
directory?

I am backing up the GnuCash data directory, but in reality, all I really
need to backup is my GnuCash file - all of these working files are just
taking up space on the backup media.

Note: I have GnuCash set to trim the files after a certain number of days,
but the files are (naturally) not deleted from the backup material, so it
has files back to when I started the backup.

Thanks!
