As a stopgap, we're using the old machine while coaxing it along.

その政せい策さくは当とう座ざ凌しのぎに過すぎず、抜ばっ本ぽん的てきな改かい革かくが必ひつ要ようだ。

That policy is just a makeshift measure; fundamental reform is needed.

一いち時じ凌しのぎ
Very similar meaning, but 一時凌ぎ emphasizes a very short-term fix, while 当座凌ぎ focuses on dealing with the immediate present.
その場ば凌しのぎ
Also means a stopgap, but その場凌ぎ often carries a nuance of an ad-hoc, on-the-spot solution, sometimes with a negative connotation of avoiding real planning.

Compound of 当座 (とうざ, 'the present moment, immediate') and 凌ぎ (しのぎ, 'enduring, tiding over'), from the verb 凌ぐ (しのぐ, 'to endure, to tide over').
