I've fixed it in CVS and in 0.4.2 release. Thanks.

When you quit ProjectCenter, it will (at least with some, seemingly the default, settings) delete the entire temporary directory. This is an extremely bad thing to do since it removes temporary files that are in use by other apps, thus causing them to misbehave and crash in odd ways.

I've attached a patch that makes -rootBuildPath return a ProjectCenter-specific subdirectory of the temporary directory; this makes it safer to remove it. However, it seems that this path is never used except to remove it. If that's the case, it'd be better to not remove anything at all.
