Thanks for those remarks, Stephan.
Here is what I have done. I downloaded part of Qt from
https://www.qt.io/download/; from the installer program provided therefrom, I
selected only the gcc pre-built option. What I got was Qt Creator.app with
frameworks installed inside the app bundle. This is version 5.5, new as of only
a few days ago. The paths to the LyX repo and Qt frameworks are this:
/Applications/Words/LyXOuterFolder/git/lyx/
/Applications/Words/LyXOuterFolder/git/qt/Qt Creator.app/Contents/Frameworks/
I ran the following script which is slightly modified from the script in
INSTALL.MacOSX:
#!/bin/bash
cd /Applications/Words/LyXOuterFolder/git/lyx/
./autogen.sh
./configure \
--with-version-suffix=-2.3 \
--with-libiconv-prefix=/usr/lib \
--with-x=no \
--disable-stdlib-debug \
--prefix=/Applications/Words/LyXOuterFolder/git \
--with-qt-dir="/Applications/Words/LyXOuterFolder/git/qt/Qt
Creator.app/Contents/Frameworks/"
make
make install-strip
I used the superstition of setting the version to 2.3 hoping that it might not
clobber version 2.2 stuff in the Applications Support folder.
The process failed with these apparent C++ errors:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make install-am

These notwithstanding, it looks like there could be Qt problems later. I
spotted the following lines:
checking whether Qt5 is requested... no
and
Configuration
...
Qt Frontend:
Qt version: 4.8.7
...
Qt 4.8.7 is my MacPorts installation.
FWIW, I see that in config.log, this appears:
--with-qt-dir=/Applications/Words/LyXOuterFolder/git/qt/Qt
Creator.app/Contents/Frameworks/

Notice that the quotes from my script have been removed.
