Lured by a mac.  I came home and I tried it on linux:

path.c:157: warning: implicit declaration of function
‘mkstemps’

Gah.
Darn you OS X and your non-portable 4.4 BSD extensions.
Sorry about that.

The original patch could do without the strbuf_detach
and free(), too.  Being tricked by an OS X manpage like
that is quite unpleasant.

mkstemp() won't do since it doesn't work with suffixes
(the templates must end with "XXXX").  I'm sure there has to
be another way, but I just can't think of it right now.

It seemed so easy at the time.
Sigh...
