1146	create-temporary-file and create-temporary-directory are subject to race conditions	Mario Domenech Goulart		"Both use the non-atomic strategy of checking if a file system object exists then act, which may lead to race conditions.

{{{create-temporary-directory}}} is specially more fragile because it uses {{{directory-exists?}}} to check if a file system object exists.  So, for example, if a regular file with the same name as the attempted one exists, create-temporary-directory will fail."	defect	new	major	6.0.0	core libraries	4.10.x		create-temporary-file, create-temporary-directory		medium
