One way to crash gnucash 1.8.4

[Kaaren Shalom & Richard Gilligan]

Start gnucash.

Close any reports you have open until only the "Accounts" tab remains 
in the left hand column.

Select Menu:File:Open In a new Window
(this will cause your account tree to be displayed in a second window)

Return focus to the (now empty) first window and select Menu:File:New 
Account...

After a few seconds I see a new window labeled "Error" with a close 
button and text as follows:



Application "strange symbols" (process 1209) has crashed
due to fatal error.
(bus error)

Please visit the GNOME Application Crash Page for more information



The line above appears to be a clickable link but clicking on it has no 
effect.

[I note that selecting Menu:New instead of Menu:File:New Account... 
successfully opens the new account setup panel although I don't know 
what happens if you actually then use that panel.]


I don't know if this crash causes any data corruption.  I have only 
tried it with a test file.  If someone can reproduce this on a test 
file I will be happy to make a bug report.

I am using gnucash 1.8.4 from fink on macosx 10.2.5 with apple x window 
system 0.2.1


Cheers,

Richard
