I've found that Cygwin's latest inkscape 0.92.3 cannot be built with either 
gcc-g++ 11.4 or 11.2.  There are incompatibilities with recent C++ include files. 
Inkscape *can* be built with gcc-g++ 7.4; that version even seems to run okay.

So it seems that without finding and installing an intervening gcc-g++ I probably 
cannot build an inkscape that shows the OP's issue for its investigative value: 
building okay but not runnable.

In the meantime I will work towards an NMU (non-maintainer update) of inkscape 
using the gcc-g++ that works... hopefully in the next couple of days or so.
