Hello
I'm using LyX 1.1.4 in FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE, XFree86 3.3.5 and XForms 0.88:
$ ldd /usr/local/bin/lyx
/usr/local/bin/lyx:

lyx: SIGSEGV signal caught
Sorry, you have found a bug in LyX. If possible, please read 'Known bugs'
under the Help menu and then send us a full bug report. Thanks!
lyx: Attempting to save document /home/Devel/lyx-1.1.4/new.lyx as...
1) /home/Devel/lyx-1.1.4/new.lyx.emergency
Save seems successful. Phew.
Bye.
Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
0x28397ae8 in kill () from /usr/lib/libc.so.3
I'm not sure if this helps to find the bug. Seems to be a problem in
XForms, not LyX.
Please CC to me if you reply because don't subscribe the list.
