The code to create a unique file (mktemp) has a logic error in uClibc.
When __gen_tempname picks a file name that already exists, the code
attempts to retry. However, the code to pick a new file name is
outside of this retry loop, causing a retry with the same exact
filename, which is very likely to fail again. This patch fixes this
problem by moving the random filename generation code inside the retry
loop:
