After installing Cygwin-1.5.23-1, I have tried to build Emacs-CVS.

But the build fails as shown below. The failure DOES NOT happen
using/reinstalling Cygwin-1.5.22-1 (i.e. the prev).

This is a packaging bug in 1.5.23-1.  For now you can fix it after
installing 1.5.23-1 like this:

 $ cd /usr/lib
 $ rm libg.a
 $ ln -s libcygwin.a libg.a

How come I was not hit by it? Maybe a difference in the steps to build cvs emacs or something else?

A difference in configuring maybe, which doesn't try to link to libg.a.

Right, I noticed my configure script I wrote long ago actually specifies --no-cygwin. I don't want to put cygwin1.dll in the path seen by windows and I dont want my emacs build to depend on cygwin. Sorry for the noise!
