Subject:	b20: problems in tempnam

I found a somewhat recent reference to same/similar problem in tempnam:

	http://www.eGroups.com/list/gnu-win32/8225.html

but that was for b19 - I have certain problems in b20 as well - tempnam
bails out with an argument like this for example:

	const char * dir = "E:\\TEMP/w3c-cache/270";
	tempnam(dir, NULL);

results in

	Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
	0x61051acc in _size_of_stack_reserve__ ()

It doesn't seem to matter if I change the "\\" to "/". I have a mount of E
and have tried

	const char * dir = "/E/TEMP/w3c-cache/270";
	tempnam(dir, NULL);

with the same result.

Has the problem reported for b19 been fixed or am I seeing something else?

Henrik

PS: I now have almost all of libwww [1] running on cygwin and is very
impressed - I have been dreaming of this for a *long* time!
