The problem is that the variable PACKAGE that is set by the --with-version-suffix switch (in config/lyxinclude.m4) is overwritten by autosomething. I guess that it will work if you replace AC_INIT(LyX,1.4.0cvs,[EMAIL PROTECTED],[lyx]) with AC_INIT(LyX,1.4.0cvs,[EMAIL PROTECTED]) in configure.ac, but I don't know if that has other consequences.
