Hi Tim, welcome to Wine!

Whoops, you attached the undiffed file!

Ah.  Such patches usually get attached to bug reports
in bugzilla or sent to wine-devel.  wine-patches is
for tested and known working patches.

That should be easy, see
http://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages

It gets initialized by tmpnam().   Presumably _wtmpnam()
will need its own static buffer.

Also, please be sure to write a conformance test
(see http://www.winehq.org/site/docs/winedev-guide/testing )
for your change!

Thanks,
Dan
