Check for mkstemp, added a port implementation if it is not present. Use mkstemp() in various places needing tmp files.
I'm not sure this is a good idea, mkstemp() is apparently buggy in old libc versions. tmpnam() is actually pretty reasonable assuming it is used correctly, which of course is not the case everywhere but that could be fixed.
This has been some time ago, and those old libc versions should not be used anymore for security reasons.
If you have a description on what was broken I can whip up a configure check though.
