Hi Cyrille,
I'm building LyX with Qt4 frameworks using the script
"development/LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh".
I'll try to build with statically linked Qt later and report what I find -
it'll take some time.
At the time of the last change in INSTALL.MacOS the latest Qt4 was 4.6.2.
But I think using 4.6.3 will make no difference for your problem...

I'll have to test your recipe to answer this.

No, I don't think so.
