bug#32989: 26.1; Opening PDF attachments in Gnus with doc-view-mode causes error on Windows

[Jordan Wilson]

Hi,

I'm running Emacs 26.1 on Windows 10. I've replicated this with "emacs -Q"

In a gnus article buffer, opening a PDF attachment in doc-view causes
doc-view to fail with the error:
  File error: "Opening output file", "Invalid argument", 
"c:/Users/Jordan/Emacs/.cache/docview-cache/ *mm*-012345" 

this leaves a buffer showing the file literally. If I rename that buffer
to something not containing an asterisk, it displays fine when running
"doc-view-mode". Windows apparently can't handle asterisks in
directory/file names.

Thanks
