Hi Eric,

Thanks. I started to watch that ticket to see where it goes. In the
meantime, I tried to workaround the problem by telling unicorn to
chown the tempfile before it's unlinked (which looks like it works
fine for now). http://gist.github.com/444901

You're right, it doesn't work if tmp.chown is removed. For
convenience, I always tried it on my local machine as a user and
chown'ed to my own user to trigger the problem. This way I could test
things without running it as root. When running unicorn with tmp.chown
removed as root, it throws EPERM errors as you expected.
