-- The C runtime (CRT) function called by os.tmpname is tmpnam.
-- Microsofts tmpnam implementation in older CRT / MSVC releases is defective.
-- tmpnam return values starting with a backslash characterize this behavior.
-- https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/bugs/555/
-- MinGW tmpnam implementation is forwarded to the CRT directly.
-- https://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/discussion/723797/thread/55520785/
-- MinGW links to an older CRT release (msvcrt.dll).
-- Due to legal concerns MinGW will never use a newer CRT.
--
-- Make use of TEMP to compose the temporary filename if an old
-- style tmpnam return value is detected.
