It took a while for me to piece together that this was an issue, and
exactly what was happening. Then it was obvious :)
I set those variables that are needed for other fonts in .cshrc, which
I believe is the "normal" way to do it.
I also start lyx from .xsession. As was obvious after I figured it
out, this means that lyx does not benefit from these declarations, and
that documents using the extra fonts (in particular, my letterhead)
don't get them.
I don't think that this is technically a bug, but I think we could
start a pool on how many times something related to it gets reported,
and how much time gets spent helping people through it.
Would allowing entry of these paths (more particularly, directories to
be added to any existing path) be a major issue? I really have no idea
of what would be involved. But I think it's going to be an issue.
