Log file pointing to wrong file

[Prof Garth Wells]

When the jit compiler fails, it points the user to the log file located somewhere under ~/.instant/error. That log file lists an error for a file that does not exist since it was created in /tmp and then removed. The file does exist but in another location, namely in the same directory as the log file.

This bug makes usage of debugger inside of a compiled module very unplesant, e.g.

from dolfin import *
...
module = compile_extension_module(code, cppargs='-g -O2')
...

Debgger then cannot find the source file of the module although the code supports debugging.

Does anybody know how to fix it?

Ok, I did not explained well what does it have in common with log file. The point is that module is compiled in /tmp and then moved to ~/.instant/ which is the common problem of both issues.
