patch to fix problem, create temp dir on same device

geoipupdate.sh don't update GeoIP.dat and GeoIPv6.dat atomically when $TEMPDIR
and %%DATADIR%% are not on the same device.

mv(1) first try to rename(2), which is atomically replace the file, but
if failed becase of cross devices, then copy file without any lock mechanism.
It is why working file should be placed under the same directory.
