Ok, cool. Just tested it on that working copy, and indeed the old temp
files are removed.

Strange though: during svn cleanup I had "Windows Explorer" open on
the .svn/tmp dir, and I could see a couple of new svn-XXXXXX being
created and removed while svn cleanup was running. Why would 'svn
cleanup' create svn-XXXXXX files (and remove them shortly after)? I'm
pretty sure the work_queue was empty so that can't be it. Maybe during
the removal of unused pristines or something?
