Summary: SysTempFileName generates memory error

Initial Comment:
The below statement generates error
outfilename  = SysTempFileName('sendfile.???')
*** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0804af68 ***
Aborted (SIGABRT)

If the statement is changed to 
outfilename  = 'sendfile.wrk'
the program works OK

Platform:

Apply patch [ 2580248 ] Fix for bug 1727269
Patch contributed by dominic wise (domwise)  

Thanks, that does indeed fix the memory error.

It seems to me either the doc or the implementation is not correct.

sendfile.??? produces /tmp/sendfLMj5FD

>From the doc, I would expect the sendfile portion to be preserved, maybe
something like:

/tmp/sendfile.LMj5FD or /tmp/sendfileLMj$FD

Have to take a look at that.
