[texinfo-pretest] [bug-gnulib] bug in gl_FUNC_MKSTEMP

[Stepan Kasal]

Hello,
  the texinfo bug report cited below has inspired me to the following two
bug reports:

1) gl_FUNC_MKSTEMP in m4/mkstemp.m4 should clean up the temporary files.
Would the patch attached to this mail be OK?

2) Why does the template use the long prefix "conftest"?  Shouldn't we use
2-4 letter prefix, as suggested in the comment to the source to AS_TMPDIR
in autoconf/lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 ?

Yours,
	Stepan Kasal
