Summary:                    gupdatedb mktemp and !
Description: 
This started as a request for mktemp but even with mktemp gupdatedb needs a
tweak.  Without CSWmktemp:
$ gupdatedb --old-format
Warning: future versions of findutils will shortly discontinue support for
the old locate database format.
/opt/csw/bin/gupdatedb: mktemp: not found
/opt/csw/bin/gupdatedb: !: not found
/opt/csw/bin/gupdatedb: mktemp: not found
/opt/csw/bin/gupdatedb: !: not found

Install CSWmktemp which is not in the findutils depend list and it still
fails:

$ gupdatedb --old-format
Warning: future versions of findutils will shortly discontinue support for
the old locate database format.
/opt/csw/bin/gupdatedb: !: not found
/opt/csw/bin/gupdatedb: !: not found

becasue the ! is not /bin/sh, I guess the was written for a system that
emulated sh with something else, probably bash.  #!/bin/ksh at the top will
fix it.
