That sounds cleaner (if it's viable).

I considered that initially, but I was not sure that there are no cases where the temporary files outlive a Compilation object, and the "/// Temporary files which should be removed on exit." comment for the TempFiles field did not really make me more confident, so I went the conservative route instead.

I'll do that change and run some tests to see where that leads.
