Hello, Volker:

Thanks for the reply.  Here is the output I got:

$ cygcheck gv
Found: C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin\gv.exe
Found: C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\gv.exe
C:/cygwin/usr/local/bin/gv.exe
  C:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\bin\cygX11-6.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygcygipc-2.dll
      C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\System32\KERNEL32.dll
          C:\WINDOWS\System32\ntdll.dll
Error: could not find libXaw3d.dll
Error: could not find libXaw3d.dll
Error: could not find libXaw3d.dll
.
.
.

Clearly, the problem is that I have two versions of gv.exe: the broken
/usr/local/bin/gv.exe may be a consequence of my early attempt of building
gv.exe myself half year ago.

Indeed, /usr/X11R6/bin/gv does work properly:

$ cygcheck /usr/X11R6/bin/gv.exe
C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin/gv.exe
  C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin\cygX11-6.dll
    C:\cygwin\bin\cygcygipc-2.dll
      C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\System32\KERNEL32.dll
          C:\WINDOWS\System32\ntdll.dll
  C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin\cygXaw3d-7.dll
    C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin\cygXext-6.dll
    C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin\cygXmu-6.dll
      C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin\cygXt-6.dll
        C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin\cygICE-6.dll
        C:/cygwin/usr/X11R6/bin\cygSM-6.dll

Thanks for the great help for solving this stupid "mystery" :-)

Best Regards,
Wei

What does cygcheck gv show for you ?

Here is my output
