Thanks for the confirmation. I started a thread on lyx-devel.
Hopefully there's an easy way to have pdfTeX and XeTeX working. Note
that if I remove the following lines from the preamble, export with
XeTeX
works fine (but pdfTeX is broken):
\DeclareInputText{176}{\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi}
\DeclareInputText{183}{\ifmmode\cdot\else\textperiodcentered\fi}
