[RFA] gcc cannot deal with full /tmp

Hi,
This is a trivial fix for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=203231
This bug is actually in libiberty, thus I post the patch to both gcc and
binutils list.
Bug description:
mkstemps() loops TMP_MAX times even if open error is fatal. This creates
an impression that gcc hung (TMP_MAX is ~200000). Moreover, when it does
finish looping and returns to make_temp_file(), make_temp_file()
just abort()s without good error message.
The patch deals with both problems.
Sample output:
Cannot create temporary file in /root/srcdevel/gcc/testdir/: Permission
denied
./z.sh: line 13: 6115 Aborted TMP=$PWD/testdir
i486-linux-uclibc-gcc -o t t.c
For libiberty/ChnageLog:
2008-09-02 Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com>
* make-temp-file.c (make_temp_file): Print a meesage
to stderr before aborting on mkstemp() failure.
* mkstemps.c (mkstemps): Loop only on EEXIST.
