Sorry, it *does* fix the error. By the time I tried this, I'd put a paragraph 
break in the margin note while I was messing around (now using "paragraph" in 
the sense of "any old paragraph of text" sense!).

It seems that there is a LaTeX error if:
 (1) You have a margin note in a heading environment (chapter, section, 
paragraph, etc)
 AND (2) you have EITHER:
   (2a) More than one (plain old) paragraph in the margin note
   OR (2b) You have an environment in the margin note (including headings such 
as paragraph, and lists such as itemize).

I think this is a bug in LaTeX rather than LyX, especially (1)+(2a). I googled 
for a (LaTeX) workaround, but I can't see one.
