It is not a problem, and thank you very much for contributing
to the project.

May I suggest you look over our todo list for something you
might find interesting?

Unfortunately your patch is wrong.

While the constants say "*_MAX" they are actually minimums.

You are guaranteed at least TMP_MAX unique filenames.

You are guaranteed at least FOPEN_MAX files open simultaneously.

Their names are lamentably confusing but part of the standard.

Cheers,
Carlos.
