Actually, it was a collection of several other randoms who insisted
on having the temporary name for the fasl and unfasl files incorporate
some part of the name of the file being compiled, and JPG entered the
picture by noting that the temporary name (before CLOSEing) and the
final name should not be the same. Comment still stands as to why
the automatic reapers (and logout protocols) can know about files with
.FNAM2 of _FASL_ and _UNFA_
