Rewrite of unique name generation

The fallback when neither mkstemp nor mktemp is available had several bugs in
it, leading to non-unique temporary filenames being generated. The attached
patch greatly improves the situation, allowing parallel builds (make -j4) to
succeed, even though the code still isn't safe security-wise.

Note: getpid() is used and assumed to be available (hopefully this doesn't
cause trouble on some really obscure Unix systems).
