Disabling async native-compilation was supported before we introduced
this variable (via native-comp-deferred-compilation) and will continue
being supported, for several valid reasons.  Removing that capability
is not on the table.

I understand that if inhibiting native-compilation would still produce
trampolines in the rare cases where they are needed, it will not do
any significant harm to your use case, is that right?

It's the system temporary directory, the one that's the value of
temporary-file-directory.  And it isn't the directory that is not
deleted, it's the comp-lambda-*.eln files (and maybe also *.eln files
under different names, like *--trampoline-*.eln) in that directory.

Thanks for the feedback.
