[issue12618] py_compile cannot create files in current directory

[Georg Brandl]

Georg Brandl <georg at python.org> added the comment:

It might work right now, but in case the file changes before your change can be processed, we will lose the previous changes if we just copy in your new file.

IOW, you're making our work much harder and your change is less likely to be applied.
