/* Generate a unique temporary filename using up to five characters of
   PFX if it is not NULL.  The directory to put this file in is
   searched for as follows: First the environment variable "TMPDIR" is
   checked.  If it contains the name of a directory, that directory is
   used.  If not and if DIR is not NULL, that value is checked.  If
   that fails, P_tmpdir is tried and finally "/tmp".  The storage for
   the filename is allocated by `malloc'.  */
