The patch introduces one buffer overflow and an regression.

If current_page_number is larger than 9, the last six characters of
szFileName won't be XXXXXX and hence mkstemp will fail with EINVAL.

job_id > 100000 will cause a buffer overflow. According to cups' API
documentation job_id can be up to 2^31-1 [1].

The attached patch makes the buffers large enough. I'll prepare a NMU
later today if nobody beats me to it.
