+ * State diagram and cleanup
+ * -------------------------
+ *
+ * If the program exits while a temporary file is active, we want to
+ * make sure that we remove it. This is done by remembering the active
+ * temporary files in a linked list, `tempfile_list`. An `atexit(3)`
+ * handler and a signal handler are registered, to clean up any active
+ * temporary files.
+ *
+ * Because the signal handler can run at any time, `tempfile_list` and
+ * the `tempfile` objects that comprise it must be kept in
+ * self-consistent states at all times.
+ *
+ * The possible states of a `tempfile` object are as follows:
+ *
+ * - Uninitialized. In this state the object's `on_list` field must be
+ * zero but the rest of its contents need not be initialized. As
+ * soon as the object is used in any way, it is irrevocably
+ * registered in `tempfile_list`, and `on_list` is set.
+ *
+ * - Active, file open (after `create_tempfile()` or
+ * `reopen_tempfile()`). In this state:
+ *
+ * - the temporary file exists
+ * - `active` is set
+ * - `filename` holds the filename of the temporary file
+ * - `fd` holds a file descriptor open for writing to it
+ * - `fp` holds a pointer to an open `FILE` object if and only if
+ * `fdopen_tempfile()` has been called on the object
+ * - `owner` holds the PID of the process that created the file
+ *
+ * - Active, file closed (after successful `close_tempfile()`). Same
+ * as the previous state, except that the temporary file is closed,
+ * `fd` is -1, and `fp` is `NULL`.
+ *
+ * - Inactive (after `delete_tempfile()`, `rename_tempfile()`, a
+ * failed attempt to create a temporary file, or a failed
+ * `close_tempfile()`). In this state:
+ *
+ * - `active` is unset
+ * - `filename` is empty (usually, though there are transitory
+ * states in which this condition doesn't hold). Client code should
+ * *not* rely on the filename being empty in this state.
+ * - `fd` is -1 and `fp` is `NULL`
+ * - the object is left registered in the `tempfile_list`, and
+ * `on_list` is set.
+ *
+ * A temporary file is owned by the process that created it. The
+ * `tempfile` has an `owner` field that records the owner's PID. This
+ * field is used to prevent a forked process from deleting a temporary
+ * file created by its parent.
