It worked just fine for me on a build from SVN on 23 January, loading
initially from a gnucash xml file with 127 accounts, approximately 5300
transactions and going back over 10 years. I then ran various reports,
played with various features, added new transactions and removed new and
old transactions. Didn't notice anything untowards.

Other points that may be useful: This file would originally have been
written by probably an early version 2.2 gnucash or maybe even a 2.0
gnucash (I stopped using gnucash for a few years). It also does not
include scheduled transactions, any business functionality (invoices,
etc), stock account activity, or multi-currency transactions.
