Thanks for the pointer. I'm still not really convinced we have a problem here with trampolines. With `make-temp-file' we are really only choosing the filename and suggesting it to libgccjit, this last one will perform the file creation. I'd be surprised if GCC does not handle this correctly, and in case shouldn't this be a GCC bug? OTOH on a slightly differnt subject and in light of this, I think we should probably backport e6043641d30 into emacs-30, so that eln files are created onace and only by libgccjit. Eli WDYT? Thanks Andrea
