Yes, the code is fine --- this was a misunderstanding on my part.

I was doing something unusual that was causing temporary files to
persist, and blamed it on 'call-with-temporary-output-file':

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(call-with-temporary-output-file (lambda (fn port) ... (execlp "swaymsg"
"swaymsg" "exec" "--" "touch" "foo")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Sorry for the noise!

Thanks.
