tempfile name limit


Hi,

This is regarding an issue first raised over 6 years ago:

http://pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr/archives/pari-dev-9903/msg00051.html

Why limit to a-z range, making it only 26 interrupted factorizations
allowed?  Even though it's not a generic solution, I am sure the
easiest thing would be just to let it go aa-azba-bz..za-zz - 676 is
better than 26.  Incidentally 676 is also the default limit of
GNU split(1), which can be raised via --suffix-length flag.

Thanks

Igor
