9836.0. "ar produces vXXXxxxxxx temporary files but doesn't clean them up" by BACHUS::SABLON (Mich�le Sablon, TP/IM Support Belgium 856-7238) Thu May 15 1997 12:55

Digital UNIX 4.0B

	A customer who did use the librarian command "ar rcl" descover that 
	this is generating all a set of vXXXxxxxxx files which size is equal 
	to the library one.

	In fact, looking to my system where we use the command "ar rc", I found
	such files into the /tmp directory.

	I don't know if this is a new behaviour or if it is expected to behave
	like this, but the problem is that is easily fill the disk during major
	development rebuild !

	Any hints ? Thanks in advance,
	Mich�le.

	QAR 46095 looks similar, but says this only happens if ar is interrupted (via ^C or some other signal). There are no known problems other than this one. If you can reproduce a problem (I couldn't), please file a QAR/IPMT so that it can be addressed.
