Well, we could create them in /tmp, and then move them to
lisp/foo.elcABCDEF, and then move them to lisp/foo.elc -- and it's
unlikely that things go wrong between the first and the second move,
which should lead to fewer of these files being left behind them Emacs
segfaults and stuff when generating the .elc files.
