Recently bumped once again into "misc/58117: installworld /tmp/ 
problem". Would it be better to solve it at "once and for all" basis?

This is a good choice for securing servers to make /tmp noexec. But when 
you did that - you'll have to face this bug again. Yes, it can be solved 
  by specifying TMPDIR. But:
  - UPDATING says nothing about that;
  - nor documentation do;
  - the message is kindda cryptic and it takes time to understand whats 
going on.

Why not document the issue or prevent it by using custom catalog?
