Because when I'm generating code that needs to store a temporary result, I
don't want to have to worry about setting up an appropriate scope and
inserting a DECL_STMT by hand. Lifetime of temporaries issues are tricky.
Though I suppose that it wouldn't be difficult to encapsulate that stuff
in, say, create_temporary_var. So never mind.
