That's easy. Lots of the stuff in lyxrc.defaults/preferences doesn't get
stored in the LyXRC class. The converters and formats stuff, f.ex. So,
here, I would have:
// LyX 13x
struct os {
static void cygwin_win32_path_fix_needed(bool);
static bool cygwin_win32_path_fix_needed();
};
// LyX 14x
namespace os {
void cygwin_win32_path_fix_needed(bool);
bool cygwin_win32_path_fix_needed();
}
LyX knows about the stuff in support, but the stuff in support don't know
nothin' 'bout LyX.

Will do. Many thanks for doing the grunt work.
