I had problems also with the template option. (From memory), while the
man page says /tmp, the code uses /var/tmp instead. I used a soft link to
put that over on a larger partition.
The problem I had with -template was when trying to stat a volume for
space it had the template filename (with ..XXX) in the string and was not
finding the file??
