No. The DJGPP version of mkstemp does TRT, even though invoking it
with a template such as "conftestXXXXXX" is a bit risky (the library
docs warns against that). Still, it copes (by truncating the
characters before the XXXXXX part: you get coXXXXXX.tmp instead).
But thanks for making the change that avoids the risky usage.
