 Replying to [comment:16 dd32]:
 > That sounds like a separate bug that should be reported if you can
 reliably duplicate it, the uploaded files should always be cleaned up
 (Only case I can think of right now would be a fatal or similar during the
 installation process).

 I think it happens when there is a request timeout. The file, or part of
 the file, is uploaded, but then the process aborts. If this file is just
 left in a temp dir, then there is no fixable WordPress bug involved.
