You still need fdopen() though, since os.stat() won't take a file
descriptor.
The patch is incomplete though, since it should remove the ENOENT
handling and the remaining reference to pagefile.sys.
As for mktemp() being deprecated - the docstring warns users away,
but actually calling it emits no warning. Sure, using it can lead
to insecurities, but there's hardly any worry of that here. If the
function were actually deprecated (that is, if calling it emitted a
DeprecationWarning), that would be a good reason to avoid calling it,
though.
