FYI, in most GNU programs, you have the following:
  $ ./configure --help
  ...
  --program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names
  --program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
  --program-transform-name=PROGRAM
                          run sed PROGRAM on installed program names
  ...

Now, this applies to all programs that are installed. How about
ripping out this code and redoing your patch so it supports:
  --lyx-prefix=PREFIX
  --lyx-suffix=SUFFIX
  --lyx-transform-name=PROGRAM
