AST mktemp as plain command. We replaced the machine's native /usr/bin/mktemp with AST mktemp since GNU coreutils and (especially!) the Solaris /usr/bin/mktemp are prone to even more collisions (Solaris mktemp in Solaris 2.6-10 and 11 (Opensolaris didn't have the problem since it used the ksh93 mktemp) suffers from printing random garbage in rare occasions, too). > (2) did the original temp file exist when the dup name was generated I don't know. I have to ask. I'm just the messenger.
