Fix handling of temporary files.
2012-05-05 Janne Blomqvist <jb@gcc.gnu.org> * gfortran.texi (GFORTRAN_TMPDIR): Rename to TMPDIR, explain algorithm for choosing temp directory. 2012-05-05 Janne Blomqvist <jb@gcc.gnu.org> * config.h.in: Regenerated. * configure: Regenerated. * configure.ac: Add checks for getegid and __secure_getenv. * io/unix.c (P_tmpdir): Fallback definition for macro. (tempfile_open): New function. (tempfile): Use secure_getenv, call tempfile_open to try each directory in turn. * libgfortran.h (DEFAULT_TMPDIR): Remove macro. (secure_getenv): New macro/prototype. * runtime/environ.c (secure_getenv): New function. (variable_table): Rename GFORTRAN_TMPDIR to TMPDIR. * runtime/main.c (find_addr2line): Use secure_getenv. git-svn-id: svn+ssh://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk@187190 138bc75d-0d04-0410-961f-82ee72b054a4

+When opening a file with @code{STATUS='SCRATCH'}, GNU Fortran tries to

+On the MinGW target, the directory returned by the @code{GetTempPath}
