There is is some similarity, and it's a good thing.

Could you please elaborate? How can it be fixed? Do you know any
external module that doesn't have this problem?

If you have a could of minutes, please look at Orinoco, which probably
has the simplest build system, yet it suffers from the .tmp_versions
problem. The Subversion repository is here
http://sourceforge.net/svn/?group_id=44338

To check the main development branch, please use
svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/orinoco/trunk orinoco

This is the Makefile:
http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/orinoco/trunk/Makefile

What would you fix?
