$ cygcheck -f `which mkfifo` fileutils-4.1-2 But, maybe, you also need the latest version of the Cygwin DLL (don't sure).
mkfifo support in cygwin is only in its preliminary stages. It is not guaranteed to work and probably will only even marginally work in a snapshot.
FYI: coreutils doesn't add any CYGWIN specific mkfifo change to the old fileutils binary. So you just need an updated cygwin1.dll, but no new mkfifo(1) to be able to use new or updated mkfifo(3) features.
