I am finding mingw package cross tests fail with missing DLLs -
CROSS_BINDIR is not in the PATH.
I now have to define src_test to run cygtest adding CROSS_BINDIR in

Is this likely to be upstream (e.g. gnulib) changes or cygport changes?
This is a shortcoming of cygport, in that you cannot just write "do
the standard src_(compile|install|test), but do this extra thing first
(like modifying PATH as you need in this case).
(One approach to this I've though about would be to have a hook
function (or set of functions) which are called before each phase of
operation, to allow this)
These test failures have been only in the latest upstream releases.
Previously no PATH fiddling was required.
For mingw64-x86_64-nghttp2 that was 2024-01-21.
Why I asked if anyone noticed any cross build changes as for example in
autotools, gnulib, or cygport?
I assumed that you were talking about "PATH needs to be set so that
dependencies of the built DLL can be loaded"
But, now I look, mingw64-x86_64-nghttp2 doesn't have any dependencies.
So, I'm not so sure. Maybe you just mean that the test harness can't
locate the just built DLL? That could well be an upstream change.
Maybe you could show the actual error?
