According to
  <http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/mkstemp.html>
and
  <http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/functions/mktemp.html>
mkstemp() and mktemp() must be declared in stdlib.h and not in stdio.h as they
are.  According to
  <http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/basedefs/stdlib.h.html>
they are a  X/Open System Interfaces Extensions
The files envolved are:
  /src/libc/compat/stdio/mkstemp.[c|txh]
  /src/libc/compat/stdio/mktemp.[c|txh]
  /src/libc/compat/stdio/makefile
Because I do not know where the files should be move to in the CVS tree, I will
not send any patch.  The current situation makes fail certain configure script
test that checks for this functionality.

Juan M. Guerrero
