| tempname.c => same
| tmpnam.c => same

Octave uses the tempnam function, but how does the gnulib tempname
module provide that?  In gnulib/modules/tempname, I see

  Description:
  gen_tempname() function: create a private temporary file or directory.

  Files:
  lib/tempname.c
  lib/tempname.h
  m4/tempname.m4

and looking at lib/tempname.c and lib/tempname.h, I only see a
declaration for gen_tempname, not tempnam.
