Everyone seems to agree that this is the way forward. So, how about we just remove the current mktemp patch, rather than wait for coreutils to make a release containing their implementation? This could give us a little more time to root out any scripts that still call `tempfile', though from Bryan & Bruce's investigations, there don't appear to be too many.
