I had a similar problem on Solaris. Sun's m4 doesn't understand the -I
option.
Gnu m4 was mentioned at a deeper level README/INSTALL (perhaps a note in
the top level INSTALL would be helpful ?)
I also had a follow up problem with syntax errors when compiling
./lyx-1.1.6fix2/sigc++/slot.cc
I did a 'make distclean' just in case the faulty m4 left something
dud lying around and got the same problem.
Further investigation showed that slot.h was an empty file.
I checked ./lyx-1.1.6fix2/sigc++/Makefile for the distclean target
and it doesn't clean up the .h files created from the macros.
My fix was to simply remove all the ${BUILT_SOURCES} .h files and
remake.
I now have a working lyx (now all I want to do is get the corporate word templates
into lyx so I can use lyx for all my writings here ...)

== LyX should work ok with version 0.89.0 of xforms, but
it is an unproven version and might still have some bugs. If you
have problems, please use version 0.88 instead.
Configuration of LyX was successful.
Type 'make' to compile the program,
