[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #36688] tempname does not return a sufficiently unique file name on windows

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #36688 (project octave):

The gnulib tempname module looks like it might provide a more random set of
file names.  But I think we are still using the version of tempname.c that is
in the liboctave directory instead of using the one from gnulib.

But the __gen_tempname function defined by the gnulib tempname module does not
seem to have the same interface as the __stdio_gen_tempname function that we
have in liboctave/tempname.c, and that is expected by the tempname.c
function.

It would be great if someone could straighten this mess out.
