Re: pkg/39717 (patch-ae in sysutils/gentoo uses mkdtemp)

[Jörn Clausen <joern%uni-bielefeld.de@localhost>]

After removing

   #include <paths.h>

again (does not exist on Solaris, and mkstemp(3C) mentions only 
stdlib.h), and changing

   strcpy(tempnamebuf, _PATH_TMP "gentoo.XXXXXX");

to

   strcpy(tempnamebuf, "gentoo.XXXXXX");

the package did compile. Does paths.h define _PATH_TMP and this provides 
an appropriate directory for temporary files? The better function in 
Solaris for this task is tmpfile, but it returns a file handle, not a 
descriptor. I know no other easy fix than to hardcode "/tmp":

   strcpy(tempnamebuf, "/tmp/gentoo.XXXXXX");
