Compiling source: Makefile.in

[Derek Atkins]

Please CC gnucash-devel on all replies....

You don't necessarily need g-wrap 1.9; you can use 1.3.4...  The only
issue is that the code generated by 1.3.4 wont compile cleanly with gcc4.

The problem below is that you can't find the g-wrap runtime during
your compile.  I don't know why configure would work unless you
have both the 1.3.4 and the 1.9 runtime installed together...  That's
not supported by g-wrap.
