This is not causing problems for test. In fact, we do not try to export to
pdf/dvi
on such converted lyx files.

The recursive export test with lyx??x has proven to be helpful (uncovering some
lyx2lyx bugs).

What we have now is _one_ step in this direction.

1.) loop:
What we do is (in checking lyx21x)
export xx.lyx to xx.21.lyx
export xx.21.lyx to xx.21.21.lyx
1a) uses lyx2lyx to convert to newest lyx format
1b) checks if xx.21.lyx is loadable
stop loop if xx.21.lyx is identical to xx.21.21.lyx
2.) changing document settings:
for system fonts this was needed for older lyx versions. Now, if the
system fonts are specified in the
lyx-file, it is not done.
