My /tmp directory is mounted as noexec from within /etc/fstab:

tmpfs    /tmp    tmpfs    size=1024M,noexec,nosuid,nodev    0    0

and when I try to install sccache, I get the following error:

$ cargo install sccache
    Updating registry `https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index`
  Installing sccache v0.2.0
 Downloading hyper v0.11.2

   Compiling app_dirs v1.1.1

error: failed to compile `sccache v0.2.0`, intermediate artifacts can be found at `/tmp/user/1000/cargo-install.aYBrcIx53fYu`

Caused by:
  build failed

It would be nice if cargo could either use a different directory to put executables in, or at the very least warn about this limitation and give a clearer error message.
