+
+# First, try to use the mktemp program.
+# Failing that, we'll roll our own mktemp-like function:
+# - try to get random bytes from /dev/urandom
+# - failing that, generate output from a combination of quickly-varying
+# sources and gzip. Ignore non-varying gzip header, and extract
+# "random" bits from there.
+# - given those bits, map to file-name bytes using tr, and try to create
+# the desired directory.
+# - make only $MAX_TRIES attempts
