Well, here's what I found with strace:

3003  open("libgw-gnc.la", O_RDONLY)    = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
3003  open("/usr/local/lib/gnucash/libgw-gnc.la", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
3003  open("/usr/local/lib/libgw-gnc.la", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
3003  open("/usr/local/lib/gnucash/libgw-gnc.la", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
3003  open("/usr/lib/libgw-gnc.la", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
3003  write(2, "ERROR", 5)              = 5
3003  write(2, ": ", 2)                 = 2
3003  write(2, "In procedure ", 13)     = 13
3003  write(2, "dynamic-link", 12)      = 12
3003  write(2, ":\n", 2)                = 2
3003  write(2, "ERROR", 5)              = 5
3003  write(2, ": ", 2)                 = 2
3003  write(2, "file not found", 14)    = 14
3003  write(2, "\n", 1)                 = 1
3003  _exit(2)                          = ?

I searched for libgw-gnc.la and it's in the .libs directory of the
source tree. It isn't installed.
