Agreed.  I've attached the trivial but untested patch here.  In an ideal world, I think we'd want to create some autoconf foo that detects where `mktemp' or `tempfile' live, rather than hardcoding paths.  Given the abandoned nature of the 0.9x branch of Grub though, I'm not sure it matters much.

I've also attached the trivial patch for findutils that I've just submitted upstream.

Matt.
