sed -i: don't leave behind a temporary sedXXXXXX file
For example, running a command like "sed -i s//b/ F" would fail to remove a temporary file named sedXXXXXX (for random XXXXXX) in the directory alongside F. * sed/sed.c (G_file_to_unlink): New global. (register_cleanup_file, cancel_cleanup, cleanup): New functions. (main): Call atexit. * sed/execute.c (open_next_file): Register for unlink. (closedown): Call cancel_cleanup right after the rename. * sed/sed.h: Declare two of the new functions. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. * testsuite/temp-file-cleanup.sh: New file. Test for this. * testsuite/Makefile.am (T): Add it. Reported by David Jones in http://bugs.gnu.org/20002.
