If you do instead

 ofstream fout(system_path(idx(args, 0)).as_external().c_str(), ofstream::out);

then the system_path constructor will adjust the path so the file
lands where the user expects.  [Really you should use write_data() as
well, but I am not sure how to construct the "temporary directory"
argument it wants.]
