The issue cannot be reproduced and things work as intended.
Brain dump. This is a recurring pain point.
Piwik's Installation system check advises users to "chmod a+w {$dir}". In the forums, the "recommendation" is often to "chmod 777 tmp". These are oversimplifications and generally, bad advice without knowing what the user's environment is (e.g., dedicated vs shared hosting).
My thought is that the installer would check the process id and directory/file permissions.
