are satisfied in a case-insensitive manner, the attempt to import (the
non-existent) fcntl gets satisfied by FCNTL.py instead, and the tempfile
module defines a Unix-specific _set_cloexec() function in that case. As
a result, temp files can't be created then (blows up with an AttributeError
trying to reference fcntl.fcntl). This just popped up in the spambayes
project, where there is no apparent workaround (which is why I'm pushing
this in now).
Also, don't call gettempdir() in the default expression for the 'dir'
argument to various functions; use 'dir=None' for the default and
insert 'if dir is None: dir = gettemptir()' in the bodies. That way
the work done by gettempdir is postponed until needed.

to the docs is ready to go, but blocked by another JackMacLock in the
doc directory.
Although Cygwin attempts to be as Posix compliant
as possible, it has difficulties unlinking open
files. This is not surprising given that Cygwin is
dependent on Win32 which in turn has this problem
itself.
The attached tempfile patch acknowledges this
Cygwin limitation. Without this patch, Cygwin
fails test_tempfile (i.e., test_has_no_name) as
follows:
$ ./python -E -tt ../Lib/test/regrtest.py -l test_tempfile
test_tempfile
test test_tempfile failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/jt/src/PythonCvs/Lib/test/test_tempfile.py", line 689, in test_has_no_name

rewrite, by Zack Weinberg). This replaces most code in tempfile.py
(please review!!!) and adds extensive unit tests for it.
This will cause some warnings in the test suite; I'll check those in
soon, and also the docs.
