There might a problem with the way MPQS creates temporary files.
Try factor(2^128+1)
The code to create temporary files is in src/language/es.c.
Maybe we use a wrong directory or a wrong filename.


Yes it is , mpqs assumes the function below creates the directory as well as testing existence

line 4175 in language/es.c
static int
pari_dir_exists(const char *s) { return 0; }

change to

static int
pari_dir_exists(const char *s) { return mkdir(s); }

So this is the same as the UNIX one but without the mode
So I suppose we will need this for MSVC and MinGW

this fixes polred,rnf,rnfkummer  tests for Win32 MSVC
