What I am discovering is, perhaps, some problem with my (original, large) bibtex file, which is several mb. When I use the small test.lyx file it works fine with the test.bib file (once I removed the \putbib etc.). The large bibtex file, however, does not work, even though it now produces no error messages, and it works perfectly (and did for years) with normal, non-sectioned bibliographies. I have never tried it before with sectioned bibliographies, and there must be something in it which the bibtopic package gags on. I shall continue to explore it. If worse comes to worse, I can make small bibtex files for each section, or break up the main article into two parts, and compile them separately, which will work for sure.
Thanks for your help, Jurgen.

In my hands this still fails.

Ouch.
Forget about \putbib. I was mixing up bibtopic with bibunits.

The attached file works for me, as you can see from the PDF.
