Would a tailwind not mean a higher groundspeed required? It should not however affect the airspeed required at take-off.
The report says the pilot lifted the nose at 112 knots instead of 120 knots. It does not speculate why, simply saying before that the take=off was longer than usual due to high air temperature & tailwind.
