Funny, the "How can you detect a cycle in a Linked List" question is in the "Secrets of Programmer Job Interviews" Section (actually it is the Appendix) of the fabulous book "Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets" by Peter van der Linden from 1994. Excellent read and apparently even the interview preparation section is still valid! ;-)

Yes, I wonder though if books with interview prep sections like this aren't used more by the employers in later years as a reference for good interview questions to ask rather than programmers actually trying to prepare for interview questions they may be asked.
