According to the comments attached to the bug, the patch still works
when using \IfFileExists instead of \pgfu...@iffileexists. Indeed,

The patch is defunct, as the source has now moved on somewhat. I've monkeyed
with
pgfcoreimage.code.tex and produced the following replacement for p...@findfile:
\def\...@findfile#1:#2+#3{%
\...@findfile@inner#1:#2+{\in...@path#3}
\ifx\...@filename\pgfutil@empty{
\...@findfile@inner#1:#2+{#3}
}
\fi
}
\def\...@findfile@inner#1:#2+#3{
\pgfu...@iffileexists{#3#1}%
{\PackageInfo{pgf}{Found file #3#1\MessageBreak}
\xdef\...@filename{#3#1}}%
{\PackageInfo{pgf}{Failed to find #3#1\MessageBreak}
\def\...@mightbeempty{#2}%
\ifx\...@mightbeempty\pgfutil@empty\else%
\...@findfile@inner#2+{#3}%
\fi
}
}
The idea is to do two searches; one with in...@path prepended, and one
without. (This is necessary to find *all* the required files.) Unfortunately, as
it stands it won't work. This is because in the TeX file which LyX produces,
the input path is defined by the following line:
\def\in...@path{{/usr/local/share/lyx/examples//}}
The problem is caused by the double braces. By the time the full path string is
passed to pgfu...@iffileexists, it looks like, for example,
{/usr/local/share/lyx/examples}beamer-knight1.png
The braces left behind invalidate the path.
So I have two questions:
a) is there a way in TeX to remove the outer pair of braces (I've tried all
sorts of tactics, but being a relative newcomer to TeX, I've failed.)
b) is there a good reason for the double braces to be there in the first place?
(I'm sure there is, but I thought I'd better ask anyway. If I edit one pair
away in the TeX file output by LyX, then my patch above seems to work fine.)

Any thoughts, anyone? Yep -- I think I screwed up. :-) Upon further review, I realize I'm missing some of the images (presumably the same ones) here. Most of the diagrams are intact because they're written in PGF rather than imported as image files. I thought the boxes that said "knight1" etc. were supposed to be boxes that said "knight1" etc.; I realize now they're placeholders for what I presume would be images of knights. I wondered why I wasn't afflicted by the bug Enrico cited. Turns out I am and didn't realize it. /Paul

Thanks for responding Paul.
I now have three machines with the following setups:
Machine 1: W2K LyX 1.6.4 on cygwin(tetex)
LyXWindows 1.6.4 MiKTeX 2.7
Machine 2: W2K LyXWindows 1.6.4 MiKTeX 2.7
Machine 3: XP LyXWindows 1.6.4 MiKTeX 2.7
so that's four installations of LyX. They all give basically the same result
for beamerlyxexample1.lyx, which is as follows:
File->Export->LaTeX (pdflatex) produces a TeX file which does not have the
\def\input line. Running this through pdflatex produces the warnings above, and
a PDF with no graphics. However, if the graphics files are put into the same
directory as the TeX file, there are no warnings about missing graphics files,
and the PDF file does have the appropriate graphics. This seems consistent with
the lack of \def\input line.
View->PDF (pdflatex) produces a TeX file which does have the \def\input line.
In each of the four cases, the path appears to be correct (in the cygwin case,
the two occurences of \string are not present, though). Running these through
pdflatex produces the warnings above, and a PDF with no graphics in each of the
four cases. Again, if the the graphics files are put into the same directory as
the TeX file, there are no warnings about missing graphics files, and the PDF
file does have the appropriate graphics. This would imply that the \def\input
line is ignored for some reason.
So
a) your XP installation works, mine doesn't
b) my \def\input lines appear to be OK, but are ignored or incorrectly
interpreted by pdflatex
c) my Export-ed files don't have the \def\input line (don't know if this is as
expected or not).
Any thoughts, anyone?

Works fine on Win XP here. Is this occurring when you try View->PDF
(pdflatex)? If so, here are a couple of things to try:
1. Try exporting a TeX file and running pdflatex against it manually.
2. Do View->PDF (pdflatex) and, while the PDF version is open, use a
DOS window to navigate to your temp directory. (Tools -> Preferences ->
Paths -> Temporary directory will point you to it if the location is not
obvious.) You should see beamerlyxexample1.tex sitting there. Open it
with any text viewer. About the third line should be a path command,
something like
\def\in...@path{{\string"C:/Program
Files/LyX16/Resources/examples/\string"/}}
(give or take). Check to make sure the path is correct.
