I had to go back and check. ;) Paul Rubin is the one that spotted the
hiccup related to the \cvline definition in moderncv. If you follow the
thread on the bug report at bugzilla, it appears that \cvline can be
redefined to avoid the problem (inside OR outside of LyX). Thus, the first
issue does appear to be a general LaTeX issue. And Xavier is already aware
of it, but I don't know if he's done anything with it yet.
