openssh unix dev - Jul 2002 - hard-coded MM_SWAP_TEMPLATE

Hard-coded MM_SWAP_TEMPLATE defined as "/var/run/sshd.mm.XXXXXXXX"
in openssh-SNAP-20020718/openbsd-compat/xmmap.c should not be used
because "/var/run" directory does not exist on some platohomes.

I thought about that. But I didn't think there were any platforms
other than Linux 2.2 that would use that section of code.

What platform are you running where this code will be trigered?
Ie. The system has mmap() but neither MAP_ANON nor /dev/zero work
