This should not happen. Glossaries are supposed to work.

I exported the file to tex, and ran latex
myself.  The logfile tell me that there
is no "testfile.nls" - documentation
suggests that makeindex was supposed to make
that one for me.

This is because you did not run makeindex with special arguments that are
required for glossaries.

Indexes work fine, so I don't think my makeindex is broken.

Is there anything else I ought to do or install? Should
lyx check that the installation supports glossaries?

This is done: LyX loads the nomencl package with a minimum required version.
This should result in an error if it is not available.

I suspect that the log file parsing is broken so that it does not recognize
that a .nls file is needed, and therefore does not create one. Maybe this
is related to http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3132.
The problem is solved. I had a custom makeindex script in order to
support index styles and still use indexes from within lyx-1.3
This script did not work with glossaries though.  Removing it
fixed everything.
