Latest self-compiled LyX versions fail to open some documents

[Christoph Schmitz]

I spotted the problem!

I first exported the document to LyX 2.3 format with the older LyX 2.4 version that could still open the file, and opened it then with the problematic LyX 2.4 version. Then I saved the file again, created a diff and replaced each difference in the faulty LyX document one after the other until I was able to open the document.

This code works:
<column alignment="right" valignment="top" width="0pt">
<column alignment="left" valignment="top" width="0pt">

This code crashes LyX:
<column alignment="right" valignment="top" width="0pt" varwidth="true">
<column alignment="left" valignment="top" width="0pt" varwidth="true">

But things are even stranger! If I open the document after deleting varwidth="true", I can change the column settings back to varwidth and compile the document without errors. But when I then close the document and open it again, LyX hangs again.
