Unfortunately, it is difficult to work around this problem, since it
happens only with hebrew. Loading amsmath after babel will probably
create problems with packages that have to be loaded after amsmath...

In LyX 1.4.0, it will be possible to avoid loading of amsmath altogether.

It already had such code for some ams constructs. What we did in 1.3.6
was to add the array constructs that had been forgotten previously.

In an ideal world, it would be up to babel/hebrew and amsmath authors
to solve the problem. I found some messages from you at the linux-il
mailing list about this problem. Could you summarize what the
situation and prospects are?
