I wouldn't bet money that mkstemp works properly on an NFS-mounted
filesystem, either.  But I feel safer delegating the problem to a
Posix-specified library routine than using a general mechanism --
there's a better chance that the developers of a quirky OS have done the
necessary fixes to mkstemp.
