Cannot create temporary directory

Hello there,


I'm using mc 4.6.1-pre4 from the sources on a FC3 GNU/Linux x86 system. From
time to time I get the following error when starting two mc instances in
separate xterms (quit simultaneously):

===
Cannot create temporary directory /tmp/mc-wwp: File exists (17)
Temporary files will be created in /tmp
Press any key to continue...
===

Seems clear and not critical at all, but I wonder if that's because of
concurrential starting of 2 instances? Is that new w/ mc 4.6.1-pre4 since I've
never got this message for years of use?


Regards,
