Am I the only one having problems with mkstemp?
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x8053c9e in __gettemp (path=0x805dcc6 "/tmp/dico.XXXX", doopen=0xefbfc204,
domkdir=0) at /usr/src/lib/libc/stdio/gettemp.c:83
83 *--trv = xtra[0];
As usual, the code in gettemp.c looks fine...
/* Move to end of path and count trailing X's. */
for (trv = path; *trv; ++trv) */
if (*trv == 'X')
xcnt++;
else
xcnt = 0;
/* Use at least one from xtra. Use 2 if more than 6 X's. */
if (*(trv-1) == 'X')
Dies here-> *--trv = xtra[0];
if (xcnt > 6 && *(trv-1) == 'X')
*--trv = xtra[1];
and changing to *(--trv) didn't help.
Cheers,
Patrick
