We should figure out a better fix eventually, but this hack at least
ought to avoid the issue for most cases, so worth it as a temp fix.

If I'm nitpicking, I would have preferred the refactoring to be
done separately from the addition of tmpdir, and especially separately
from the sleep, so we can just revert the sleep patch later.


With regards,
Daniel
