They're meant to be cleaned up automatically by libgccjit: on
gcc_jit_result_release for a successful compilation, or at the end of
gcc_jit_context_compile* for a failed compilation.

The removal code is in gcc::jit::tempdir::~tempdir in gcc/jit/jit-
tempdir.c, maybe there's a bug there? (perhaps only affecting Windows?)
It calls unlink on everything it "knows" about, and them rmdir on the
directory.  I see now that I'm not checking for errors on those unlink
and rmdir calls.

Is the code setting GCC_JIT_BOOL_OPTION_KEEP_INTERMEDIATES to true,
perhaps?  That forcibly keeps them around:
