I've reported this a few weeks ago.
That's the effect of the new "secure file creation" mechanism,
which leaves those temp-dirs behind on NFS. See #2707

A temp-fix is to replace the "safe_open" with "open" in lib.c: 622
-     if ((fd = safe_open (path, flags)) < 0)
+     if ((fd = open (path, flags,0600)) < 0)


BTW, Lars, can you have a look at #1431 again?
