Oh, sorry for misguiding you!
I didn't think of this aspect.

The new changeset looks good to me.
(I'll post a reply in that thread too)

Just as a thought, ZipFile() can take a file-like object instead of a file name,
so can be passed the NamedTemporaryFile() object directly instead of its file name.
This should hopefully avoid double-open issue on Windows.

However, I'm good with your allocateTempFileName() changeset,
so it's up to you to give it a try or not.
