So does this affect Windows only? or also Linux?  and OSX?

Title:
  Windows uses current directory for temporary files

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Confirmed
Status in Hugin default series:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've tried to use hugin and enblend with TIF output. However, this
  generated two TIF files with more than 100MB, which filled up my /home
  partition. However, I have a few gigabytes free at another partition.

  A similar issue could arise if /home was a network-mounted filesystem.
  Even though I would want to operate on files from that filesystem and
  save the final result there, those huge temporary files should be
  stored elsewhere (/tmp or any user-defined place).

  My suggestion: allow the user to specify an alternate temporary
  directory.
