Yes, if trying to export first supported-languages.lyx (which also does not end)

No.

Never.

On subsequent runs it does not help to use
	"Don't show this warning again"
the only difference is, that the dialogue now does not appear.

To summarize, here the sequence of commands to provoke the hang

1.) $ lyx -E pdf2 x1.pdf
	<lyxsource>/autotests/export/latex/languages/supported-languages_babel_auto-legacy.lyx
	(works OK)
2.) $ lyx -E pdf2 x.pdf
	<lyxsource>/autotests/export/latex/languages/supported-languages.lyx
	1a.) kill lyx, because it hangs
3.) $ lyx -E pdf2 x2.pdf
	<lyxsource>/autotests/export/latex/languages/supported-languages_babel_auto-legacy.lyx
4.) Remove session info ...
5.) $ lyx -E ... still hangs

So, now it never exports. (Tried to remove session, session.cmake)
