I've removed temp-file-name-pattern, and changed call-process-region to
use temporary-file-directory.

Recently I learned about the variable temp-file-name-pattern when
under odd circumstances I didn't have access to /tmp. I was
surprised that the default value of this variable was
/tmp/emacsXXXXXX, thus ignoring my setting of
temporary-file-directory. Shouldn't temp-file-name-pattern take into
account the value of temporary-file-directory?
