Okay, just as an FYI for anyone else with this problem, I during the
import, I told gnucash that the "Retained Earnings:Sequoia" account
(which it created for the Sequoia "opening balance" was of type Mutual
Fund instead of its default of Equity.  That allowed it to do the
import successfully.  Once it's imported, then I could move things
around to get everything in the right places....
