If we are talking about implementations of mkstemp() then bucomm.c does not do
that.
Instead bucomm.c contains a function called make_tempname() which uses
whichever version of mkstemp is provided by the C library at the time of
program execution.

There is however a sort-of fourth candidate in the form of the mkstemps()
function provided by the libiberty library (in the libiberty/mkstemps.c file in
the binutils sources).  This version is not used by bucomm.c however as it has
issues with paths that contain directory names.
