fusecompress_offline hangs for 50 seconds if it cannot create a temp file #47

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run fusecompress_offline from a directory you are not allowed to write to.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It should come back with an error; instead, it hangs. According to the comment 
in the code, that is because mkstemp() "may fail" and needs to be retried. I 
find that hard to believe... At any rate, it will make file_create_temp() hang 
for almost a minute!
