I already said what I thought about it almost one week ago (I was the
one who started this thread after all). And I haven't changed my mind
about it.

http://lists.boost.org/MailArchives/boost/msg67345.php

To summarize: don't bother trying to create a temporary file, just
create a file in the current directory and give it an explicit name (and
erase it when you are finished). At this stage of a release, you just
want the tests to build without complaint from the linker. I'm not
asking for more till the release.

Then, after the release, somebody can try to come with a secure solution
(in the filesystem library maybe?).
