This is a pure bug fix release. It also enables basic operations on Windows Vista 64. The 1.5.23-2 release fixes a packaging bug which resuls in spurious prob;ems when trying to link agains libg.a. Otherwise the release is functionaly equivalent to the 1.5.23-1 release. Below the fixes compared to 1.5.22-1 again. This time including the newlib bugfixes by Eric Blake.
