$temp_dir/birch-$pid-$2: No such file or directory

[fehawen]

I get the following messages from time to time:

path/to/birch: line 87: /tmp/birch-[pid]-[#nickname-random-text]: No such file or directory

Out of curiosity, I added the following to irc_print():

tee -a $HOME/birch-log.txt >> /dev/null << EOT

time: $(date)
pid: $pid
channel: $chan
channels: ${channels[*]}
temp_dir: $temp_dir
arg1: $1
arg2: $2

EOT

And here's the output I receive, where the second paragraph's arg1 and arg2 seems to be what's causing the No such file or directory error:

Not sure if I should edit out any nicknames etc for privacy concerns; let me know and I'll edit it.

Furthermore, not sure if this is due to misuse from my end or if it's something worth looking into.

Update note: After inspecting the birch files in /tmp, it looks like either the entire first or second argument constitutes the tmp file names, as I have tmp files by the name of e.g. 'birch-5879-#DasMoeh!~Orlando@HSI-KBW-095-208-211-101.hsi5.kabel-badenwuerttemberg.de QUIT :Remote host closed the connection'
