Here is the list of changes for the 0.92.x branch: https://git.launchpad.net/inkscape/log/?h=0.92.x The 0.92.3 tag was created on 2018-03-11 in 3ce5693 but the version in the configure.ac file was not updated to 0.92.3 until 2018-03-28 in d2272d9. So yes, the developers forgot to update it before the release. If we need to rebuild inkscape for some other reason we should include that fix, but since it takes a long time to build and is not distributable, rebuilding just to fix the version string might be undesirable.
