oh, sorry.  looks like I was off by two here, and thought
you were talking about tmpnam.

fwiw, SUSv2 seems to say that tmpnam is thread safe, if
used in the right way.  there is no tmpnam_r in SUSv2.

I'll dig into this later (maybe they've added things in SUSv3).

sounds reasonable (or rather, I haven't got a clue, so I'll
have to trust you on this one ;-)
