I'm not convinced. If I delete tmp, pseudo gets deleted, but pseudodone
stays. In my opinion, pseudodone's intuitive location is tmp, if the
location of tmp is known - which it is in my case.

Can you please at least put $BUILDDIR/pseudodone into a variable, so I
can keep my patch small and maintainable?
