Ehh, I spoke a bit too early.

Unfortuantely we cannot queue this as-is, as we let the tempfile API
to automatically manage the pidfile since ebebeaea (gc: use tempfile
module to handle gc.pid file, 2015-08-10), and you cannot piggy-back
the log file finalization to this function that no longer exists.

Besides, it is obviously wrong to remove this log file in a function
whose name is remove_pidfile() ;-)

Adding a new function to tempfile API that puts the file to a final
place if it is non-empty and otherwise remove it, and using that to
create this "gc.log" file, would be the cleanest from the point of
view of _this_ codepath.  I however do not know if that is too
specific for the need of this codepath or "leave it if non-empty,
but otherwise remove as it is uninteresting" is fairly common thing
we would want and it is a good addition to the API set.

Michael, what do you think?
