Many thanks to all who commented on my faux pas ...

I should say that I am coding/debugging an AIX system from home on FreeBSD
and I had to change calls to 'tempnam' to calls to 'mktemp' since the
FreeBSD
spec is quite different from the AIX spec (which claims to be BSD
conformant)
but that is no excuse for the error of my ways.

Thank you all for being so polite (not one unpalateble reply).
