Perhaps this?
if (table->s->tmp_table)
{
/* you've got a temp table... */
}

Who knows. The flags passed to the handler functions are fubar and
poorly documented and the openfrm() function is a legacy code burial
ground -- just take a look at open_binary_form() in MySQL 6.0 -- it's
1031 lines of very dense code that's difficult to understand on a good day.
