[Bug libc/14327] New: pthread uses mktemp(), causing link-time warning


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14327

             Bug #: 14327
           Summary: pthread uses mktemp(), causing link-time warning
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.15
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: nyh@math.technion.ac.il
                CC: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


When *statically* linking a program with -lpthread, I get the following
warning:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.7.0/../../../../lib64/libpthread.a(libpthread.o):
In function `sem_open':
(.text+0x67f8): warning: the use of `mktemp' is dangerous, better use `mkstemp'

This warning is annoying, because it implies there something wrong with
libpthread. Can glibc use mkstemp like the warning suggests? Or do something
else to avoid this warning from the linker?

I'm seeing this problem on Fedora 17, gcc 4.7.0, glibc 2.15.
