Another thread I'm trying to revive... the discussion went away quite a bit
from the suggested patch to conditionally run this one test only when mktemp
is available.

I'll create a patch when there are chances it is accepted.

I could think of a way to replace mktemp with a perl one-liner (or
small script)...
conditionally, when mktemp is not available... maybe in the build process?
As far as I can see, perl is absolutely necessary and can therefore be used to
"solve" the mktemp problem...

...or maybe I should stop bringing this up again :-)
