Follow-up Comment #2, bug #14386 (project findutils):

A minimal cygwin install is an example system.  mktemp is available on
cygwin, but only as an optional install on top of the bare minimum.

Note that the recommended usage in the autoconf manual still tries mktemp
first; it's just that it has a safe fallback that works even when mktemp is
not present.
