Yes, that is the problem:
...
mkstemp(suffix='', prefix='tmp', dir=None, text=False)
mkstemp([suffix, [prefix, [dir, [text]]]])
User-callable function to create and return a unique temporary
file. The return value is a pair (fd, name) where fd is the
file descriptor returned by os.open, and name is the filename.
This is the help text from 2.3 version of mkstemp, notice that this
function returns a file descriptor, as in the C case this is an
integer.

I will write a replacement for this using TemporaryFile that is
available since 2.0 and it says that "The file is created in the most
secure manner available in the appropriate temporary directory for the
host platform."
In the special case of 2.3 the mkstemp is used, so no need to wrap
it. :-)
I will submit a patch for this soon...
