You have /tmp mounted noexec, don't you?  Took me a while to track that
one down as the old version of logrotate didn't care.  The basic
consensus during my research was that a noexec /tmp only creates a *very
minor* inconvenience for a hacker/cracker and that it breaks other legit
apps/installers.
