Ok, thank you for the feedback and your patience.
It seems like this is a very good example for finding the solution
for the problem while trying to create a MWE :)
See http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/MinimalExample
So it's not Yosemite related this time.
The "offending" change is described here:
http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/7977
I don't think this change was announced anywhere but OTOH there was
so much work done for the 2.1.0 release - three years - sorry for this.
