Really?
$ grep -r flimage_get_number_of_formats src
src/frontends/xforms/xformsImage.C:     int const nformats =
flimage_get_number_of_formats();

It appears that you don't have the XForms image manipulation header files
installed. (You probably had a message at the end of the configuration
step warning you of this...)

You can grab the XForms sources here:
http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/xforms/
Alternatively, if you're using an rpm-based linux machine, grab
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/xforms/libforms-1.0-release.i386.rpm
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/xforms/libforms-devel-1.0-release.i386.rpm

Finally, if you are using such a machine, you might have a look in here
ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/bin/1.3.5/
and see if anyone has contributed anything that you could 'just use'.

Regards,
Angus
