Fwd: Netcgi buffers on /tmp

Gerd,

The temporary files contain the BODY for POST requests. I'm running two
Netplex instances on the same machine, one of which cannot be controlled
with netplex-admin which forces me to terminate it with SIGKILL (I could add
a handler, I know, it's just a mock service instance). Since you mention
that cleanup happens in object finalizers it is obvious they don't get to
run so the files accumulate in the temp directory.

Thank you for your assistance,
Matías.
