Win32 IO::File::new_tmpfile very slow

Try this on a Linux box and a Win32 box:

use IO::File;
while(1) {
print "$x\n" unless $x++ % 1000;
my $fh = IO::File::new_tmpfile || die $!;
}

On Linux it just zaps away, creating thousands of temp files instantly. On
Win32 it churns away like its giving out tickets at a meat counter. Is
this because of Win32 internals, or some other reason?

Incidentally, a custom "new_tmpfile" built on File::MkTemp proceeds at
similar speeds on both Win32 and Linux.
