Comment(by hamish):

 the empty file versions may be related to #943, core/render.py creates
 some temp files without extension, then creates some more in /tmp/ with
 e.g. .ppm extension. Note that way cancels the benefit of using
 tempfile.mkstemp(), since the temp file created is no longer created in a
 secure way, and /tmp is a+w. (at least $MAPSET/.tmp/ is u+w only)

 after the empty temp files, there are still .ppm files not being removed
 too.
