i think, it is less likely that an unrelated process locks a make's
private temp file, than a system wide global file.

/dev/zero, /dev/lp0, /dev/lp1, /dev/pts, etc.
i recognize the simplicity of using stdout. However, i also dislike
adding pieces of code for a set of special files. The user will always
find a way to screw it.
Also, make is portable. What about those systems which do not have
inode/devices?
