Thanks, that should do it on the Microsoft side. I installed
the patch and am marking this done. The patch I installed
also included the following additional simplification:

Fix some minor races in hosts lacking mkostemp (Bug#15015).
Gnulib's emulation of mkostemp doesn't have races that Emacs's does.
+ * configure.ac (mkostemp): Remove check for this function;
+ gnulib does the check now.
+ (mkstemp): Remove check for this no-longer-used function.
* lib/mkostemp.c, lib/secure_getenv.c, lib/tempname.c, lib/tempname.h:
* m4/mkostemp.m4, m4/secure_getenv.m4, m4/tempname.m4:
New files, copied from Gnulib.
