I'm looking at the v13 patch and don't see a change I submitted
with a patch to v10.  You wrote:
   snprintf(tempfn, sizeof(tempfn), "%s",                       CURRENT_LOG_FILENAME);   strcat(tempfn, ".tmp");

I patched to:
   snprintf(tempfn, sizeof(tempfn), "%s.tmp",                       CURRENT_LOG_FILENAME);

As long as you're doing a snprintf() there's no point
in "risking" a buffer overflow by a subsequent strcat().
(Not that you're likely to ever get a buffer overflow.)
And why make two calls instead of 1?  That's what's
in my head.
