Please report this to bug-gnu-utils AT prep DOT ai DOT mit DOT edu.  These are
generic GNU bugs, and should be corrected by them.

This is not the right way to correct this problem.  You need to change
things so that <fcntl.h> is included by backup.c.  Can you see why it
wasn't included in your case and tell me?

I don't understand.  What exactly fails, and with what message, if you
don't do this?

Please at least say which commands leave files in TMPDIR, and what
files are they.  I cannot begin to look into that without some minimal
info.
