I'm rather confused about why there would be a danger of an infinite
loop if `tramp-make-tramp-temp-file' called `make-nearby-temp-file',
if that (presumably) is not a danger if I call `make-nearby-temp-file'
in a tramp context?

I'm obviously missing something.  Never mind.  Thank you for pointing
me to the new function!
