Why don't you make the Matlab copy of GS the same as the system?
I tried that unsuccessfully already.
Matlab generates the ps file even when I remove its GS directory completely.
When I substitute Matlab GS with "official" GS, the figures still misbehave
after I regenerate them from scratch

Your starting idea seems the easiest place to start.
LyX was configured with the system GS. It is now going
to use the matlab gs. Does the matlab gs need to be put
in the beginning of Path_prefix? Reconfigure/Restart?
[SET LC_ALL=en_EN] I think that stands for Locale.
