Symptoms:
	PHCO_21230:
	1.  mktemp(1) memory faults and dumps core whenever
	    it generates a pathname of length in multiples
	    of eight bytes.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_21230:
	1.  Insufficient memory is allocated to hold the
	    temporary filename. So mktemp(1) fails to store
	    the filename in the allocated memory and
	    dumps core.

	Resolution:
	    Now sufficient memory is allocated to hold the
	    temporary filename.
