Symptoms:
	PHCO_28672:
	( SR:8606297169 CR:JAGae60688 )
	diff3(1) command leaves unwanted temporary files in
	/var/tmp.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_28672:
	( SR:8606297169 CR:JAGae60688 )
	The diff3(1) command creates temporary files in /var/tmp
	while processing the input files. These files are not
	cleaned up by diff3(1) upon exiting, which leads to
	unnecessary consumption of disk space.

	This problem can be reproduced as follows:

	     1. ls /var/tmp/d3*
	        /var/tmp/d3* not found
	     2. cat file1
	        line1
	     3. cat file2
	        line2
	     4. cat file3
	        line3
	     5. diff3 file1 file2 file3
	        ====
	        1:1c
	          line 1
	        2:1c
	          line 2
	        3:1c
	          line 3
	     6. ls /var/tmp/d3*
	        /var/tmp/d3c1071

	Resolution:
	diff3(1) has been modified to clean up temporary files
	before exit.

Enhancement:
	No
