I'm back and finally able to look at LyX-1.4.0-pre3. I notice right off that some files relevant to the Mac are simply missing (though they are present in CVS):

* INSTALL.MacOSX
* development/MacOSX/LyX.app/Contents/Library/Spotlight/LyX- Metadata.mdimporter (the folder is there, but it's empty of relevant contents)
* development/MacOSX/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS
* development/MacOSX/LyX.app/Contents/Resources

(Without these, LyX won't run on Mac.)

Also, with the new requirement of automake 1.9 and the possibility of using gcc >= 3.3, I've updated the INSTALL.MacOSX file (diff attached).

Finally, LyX-1.4.0-pre3 does not contain Martin's singlerow6.diff patch necessary for decent typing speed on the Mac. I applied that patch manually before posting a test version; should I do this for the final version of 1.4.0? (I've lost track of where we stood on this....)
