is imo better, b'cause more correct (afai have understood)
is it a general problem with xforms-0.88.1?
configure detects the version, so it could give an error
so INSTALL should look like this
if ./configure claims that your xforms library is 0.88.1, which is not
compatible with LyX, please downgrade to xforms-0.88 (i.e. RedHat
package xforms-0.88-9 from RedHat 6.2)
