To create an IW44 layer, didjvu:

* creates a unique temporary file directly in /tmp (or in $TMPDIR)
* passes name of this file to c44(1) as the output file name

Unfortunately, c44 deletes the output file, and then creates a new one under the same name (without O_EXCL). This opens a race window, during which malicious local user could create their own file under this name.

This bug was fixed upstream in didjvu 0.4:
