;; Just adding "2>/dev/null" would be enough. :)

Yes, emacs-w3m should be able to clean temp files when user want
it. I've added cleaning function `w3m-cleanup-temp-files' and customize
variable `w3m-do-cleanup-temp-files' to enable
it. Now `w3m-do-cleanup-temp-files' is default to `nil', but maybe it
should be default to `t' after some tests.

For Japanese developers:

削除できていない一時ファイルを削除する `w3m-cleanup-temp-files' と、それ
を有効にする `w3m-do-cleanup-temp-files' を追加しました。 今のところ
`w3m-do-cleanup-temp-files' はデフォルトで nil にしていますが、しばらく
テストした後にはデフォルトで t にしたほうがよいように思います。 というこ
とで、よろしければテストをお願いします。
