Although thought I had the right version at least accorfing to the
RedHat 7.0 RPM database I have obtained a new version from one of the
mirrors mentioned in the 'INSTALL' file and the errors are now
gone. Just in case somebody stumbles into the same hole. I have
downloaded:

   855918 May 30  1999 bxform-088-glibc2.1.tgz

from 

   ftp://ncmir.ucsd.edu/pub/xforms/

That seems to fit a standard RedHat 7.0 installation. I have just done a
'make install' with it and _not_ previously removed the installed RPM
version. After installing this, LyX compiled and linked cleanly.
