[tex-live] Location of recorder file

[Karl Berry]

    This issue is hopefully solved in LuaTeX:
    http://tracker.luatex.org/view.php?id=615 Maybe someone wants to provide
    an analogous patch for the other engines?  

I believe LuaTeX is actually using the common recorder code here,
let's not go backwards by introducing engine-specific changes when there
is no need.  There's already much too much of that.

I changed recorder_change_filename in web2c/lib/openclose.c in the same
way (r22270).

Oh, sigh.  That works for tex and pdftex, but not luatex, when I call
luatex -ini --output-directory=tmp --recorder /home/karl/hello.tex
-- it tries to tmp//home/karl/hello.texPID.fls, which is never going to
work.

Well, more later I guess, I'm out of time for today.
