Re: SQLite temporary path creation broken in latest stable release

There's no reason to ever use backslashes in paths, ever.

I suspect it is an interaction between #ifdef WINDOWS == true and the cygwinTempPath() hack patched into that version. The mainline SQLite code doesn't realize we've played a bit of sleight of hand with it, so it fails when it wants to add a second level to its temporary storage hierarchy.

If true, that's yet another reason to switch to 3.7.17: I removed the hack since we're building as SQLITE_OS_UNIX.
