Comment (by nacin):

 My initial questions would be:
  * Which host is this?
  * What exactly does phpinfo() reveal about tmp directories?
 upload_tmp_dir? TMPDIR? Other environment variables?
  * Why does Imagick work but GD does not?
  * Is there a way to specify the temporary location used by Imagick?
  * Without WP_TEMP_DIR, what does get_temp_dir()? If things aren't
 writable, at the very least wp-content should be, and that's what we use
 before falling back to /tmp/.
