Apart from that the README files says:
What do I need to compile LyX from the source distribution?
* A good C++ compiler. Development is being done mainly with
gcc/g++, but some others work also. As of LyX 1.6.0, you need at
least gcc 3.2.x.
* The Qt4 library, version 4.2.0 or newer.
Read the file "INSTALL" for more information on compiling.
So: Not sure that 4.1.4 will suffice.
