Quoth unobe@cpan.org:
> read error from temp file

Are you sure? The code says:

		if(nr <= 0)
			error("read error from temp file");

and error does:

	fprint(2, "acme: %s: %r\n", s);


so at minimum, I'd expect the full error to start with 'acme:',
and a second ':' after "read error from temp file". Those are
both bits of information that are useful to match things up
with what happened.

If there's an empty error string, which is printed by the '%r'
in error(), that means we got the only possible non-error
condition reading the temp file, an EOF (r == 0). I don't
know why we'd get that, but it leads down a different path
to investigate than a disk read error.
