In config/xforms.m4, there is already
dnl Usage LYX_PATH_XFORMS: Checks for xforms library and flags
dnl If it is found, the variable XFORMS_LIB is set to the relevant -l flags,
dnl and FORMS_H_LOCATION / FLIMAGE_H_LOCATION is also set
AC_DEFUN(LYX_PATH_XFORMS,[
LIBS="$XPM_LIB $LIBS"
AC_CHECK_LIB(forms, fl_initialize, XFORMS_LIB="-lforms",
[AC_CHECK_LIB(xforms, fl_initialize, XFORMS_LIB="-lxforms",
[LYX_LIB_ERROR(libforms or libxforms,xforms)])])
AC_SUBST(XFORMS_LIB)
Which should do what you want.
I can see several problems with the current code (like Lars' creative
use of fourth argument of AC_CHECK_LIB), but I would like to be sure
of what your problem is before trying to fix it. Can you send me the
configure output, as well as your config.log when things fail? I'm
sure you have done t already, but I lost what I had.

Should be capital X.
