Fixed!!!
And many thanks to JMarc for patience.
I had gotten a libc.so.5 form of libforms.so.0.88 mixed into my system.
A diagnostic approach that would have worked is.

locate libforms.so.0.88  
strings path/libforms.so.0.88 |egrep libc

The first step is for those of us who have multiple installs of various
things.  REALLY should eliminate repititions; there are tools to find
duplicate file names somewhere.
The second step should yield libc.so.6 !
Otherwise things like system(""), getcwd() fail in lyx.  Although I can't
imagine why.

Again: Thanks to JMarc for patience and many emails.
