There is a known problem with this combination of software. INSTALL
states:

  o LyX-1.0 does not work correctly on Linux/AXP - that is Linux
    running on Digital Alpha CPU systems - if compiled by egcs-1.1.1.
    The crash can be triggered by opening the Tutorial !

    Actually I never heard of anybody succesfully running LyX-1.0 on
    any Linux/AXP system. Some older versions worked fine for me, though.

    The easiest workaround is to compile completely without
    optimization. That is achieved by doing (inside the lyx build dir)
        CXXFLAGS=" -O0 " path_to_configure/configure ; make

    The best workaround is to manually compile the file math_iter.C without
    optimization. Only that single file math_iter.o causes the trouble.

    It is not clear yet whether the problem is in LyX or egcs.
