146552 - Remove the mktemp stub from nssinit.c

Status: NEW

(NSS :: Libraries, defect, P2)

Description

[Wan-Teh Chang]

In NSS 3.4.2, we added a stub for mktemp to nssinit.c and
caused it to be exported from nss3.dll to be "bug compatible"
with NSS 3.2.x and 3.3.x.  (See bug 142575.)

This mktemp stub should be removed in NSS 4.0.  The patch
that should be removed is attachment 84827 [details] [diff] [review].

P1 for a release that will never happen?

Comment 2

[Wan-Teh Chang]

In this bug, NSS 4.0 doesn't mean the Stan release.  It
simply means the next NSS major release in which we are
allowed to break backward compatibility (removing a
function).

Clearing priority & target milestone for P1 bugs with bogus target milestones.

Comment 4

[Wan-Teh Chang]

This bug should be targeted at 4.0.  This bug is a code cleanup
that breaks binary compatibility, therefore it can only be done
in the next major release (4.0).

The bug assignee is inactive on Bugzilla, so the assignee is being reset.
