As reported, the issue reads:

My guess is that such an incompatibility between GNU and *BSD
mktemp(1) implementations may still be an issue, even if
Severity: wishlist. This way or the other, such an issue is up
to the upstream to resolve, though.
FTR: mktemp(1) is not POSIX, so I’m as of yet unsure if it’s
suitable for portable Shell scripts at all.
