salo b5870e3006 Security fix:
- fix insecure file creation in /tmp, patch from silc cvs

the impact of this issue is very low.  it allows an attacker to overwrite
arbitrary files owned by the user running silcd ("silcd", in pkgsrc) IFF
the owner of the process or root send SIGUSR1 signal to the process to dump
stats.  the only file owned by the "silcd" user is typically the log file
which resides in a directory inaccessible by anyone except the user itself
and root so the potential attacker would need to guess its name.

please note that the advisory also incorrectly states that silc-toolkit is
vulnerable too.  the code in question is never compiled in the toolkit so
it's not affected.
