Bruno, exactly.

Just to clarify, I'm not the original reporter, but I can understand the
issue. Also, a friend ran into this, as she "works" in the NFS-mounted
directory that has backups etc etc, but there is no reason to send the
"temporary" nona remapped images over the network (back and forth).

Anyway, yes, the temporary files stop being temporary when you indicate you want to keep them. 
And by that time, the storage space in the current directory needs to be there anyway, if they don't fit, there is no way to make them fit.

Title:
  Current directory used for temporary files

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

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.
