Pretty sure.

Nope -- the needed mktemp first appeared in FC. Red Hat Linux 9's version is
too old to have the option which the last RHL9 netpbm update uses. See:

<http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=115314>

Shouldn't ever have gotten past QA; should have been fixed pretty fast when
the mistake was realized. Or at the very least, when an outsider pointed it
out and filed a bug report.
