Here is the email where I troubleshot the compile failures down to the practice of nesting LaTeX code inside LyX styles: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg66171.html The thread that follows goes into possible solutions and eventually comes to the conclusion that it's insoluble without modifying LyX files to take LaTeX out of LyX style defs. If one could somehow take all the Preamble...EndPreamble code out of LyX styles and put it in the document preamble, the compile problems would go away. The only solution I can think of that doesn't involve reconstructing existing LyX files that distribute with LyX is a script that recurses through all included LyX files, removes LaTeX embedded in LyX styles, and moves it up to the document preamble, and then use THAT MASSIVE FILE as your layout file.
