Upstream covers more than just Linux distros: Aix, Solaris, OS X, HP-UX, ... and even Windoze (though the javareconf script may not matter there). But I just emailed the point person for javareconf. Maybe we can move creation of the temp.dir into a helper function which use mktemp if present and default to what it currently does. New version with patched javareconf now uploaded.
