Comment (by DavidAnderson):

 Yes, this issue is still there and relevant, and still causes support
 requests often.
 In my view the proposed solution in this issue - performing the final step
 of a plugin install update atomically by using a `rename()` is a much
 better solution than what has been proposed on make.wordpress.org of roll-
 backs for partial installs. The idea of rolling-back is a heavyweight
 band-aid for the lack of atomicity. The solution to the root problem is to
 implement the atomicity.
