You need to make clean; make; make install

Then the code will build correctly, and gnucash will work just fine.
If there is some specific bug that results, let me know.  But is
passes a variety of tests, including gnucash 'make check'

I'm guessing that what happened to you is that you linked 
a gnucash binary to older gnucash files in /usr/liocal/lib.
This will break, because the qof structs have changed in size,
and so you will get all sorts of weird core dumps.
