You only included one of the bib files in your LyX file, you can include
both by separating their names with a comma in the "BibTeX Generated
References" popup.

Also useful for testing bib and bst files is using \nocite{*} in ERT, it
causes every bib entry to get included in the bibliography.

I don't know the answer to that, but I found the makebst options that
are causing the errors.

I could find no documentation on 'har' and 'harnm' options (but I didn't
look very hard), I had to remove both of them to get rid of the errors :-(.

The 'jwdpg' and 'jwdvol' options don't seem to play well with each
other.  Removing either one (in addition to removing the har* options)
made the resulting in your files formatting without any errors.

I happened to be using the exact same versions.  Perhaps look for a newer
version (or even an older version) of the merlin.mbs or makebst.text
files.  Alternatively try a different *.mbs file.  I don't know much
about makebst or *.mbs files, I just know that my TeX distribution has
several of them.
