Problems should be reported to the inappropriately named
config-patches address, but not to worry!
The temporary filename generation code is new as of a week ago. I
looked at it pretty closely, but in the end, decided to let it loose
and wait for problem reports, expecting that they can be fixed
quickly. So--thanks!
Can you run sh -x config.guess and send it to me directly so that I
can get an easy handle on what is going wrong? There is fallback code
to handle systems without mktemp which should be kicking in.
