<SIGH>  OS X substitutes PID for the XXXXXX and attempts to create the
file.  If creation fails, it substitutes a0, b0, ..., z0, aa, ba, ..., zz
for the first two digits of PID until it succeeds in creating a unique file.
Unfortunately, Lynx renames the generated file, so  mkstemp() never needs
to roll ahead to the next name.  </SIGH>
