That means that the second phase of the compiler can't find the
intermediate files left behind by the first phase.  Check your TMP
environment variable to ensure that it points to a valid directory, and
doesn't have garbage (like spaces or semicolons) at the end of it.

This message should never appear, btw.  I'll see why it is appearing now,
and how to make it stop. :-)
