example('breedR', 'breedR') not working in Windows #1

remlf90 doesn't work in the example. An inspection of the process output reveals that the temporary directory where the files parameter, data and pedigree is too long for AIREMLF90, as they get truncated at 41 characters.

We either modify Misztal's code, or use a Workaround by setting a shorter temporary path in Windows.

I'd rather not modify Misztal's programs, to make it easier to update to future versions. We might warn of this problem, in case they want to fix it.

For the moment, let's try the workaround, at the risk of having some collateral problems (permissions, previously existent dirs with same name, etc.)

I will set the temporary dir in Windows as "C:\Rtmp", and delete it afterwards (checking that it doesn't exist in first place).
