I have no idea if that would make a difference, honestly.  It should
work either way.

Nope, that should be sufficient.

I suspect this is part of the issue, if it's finding the wrong version
of a library.  All I can say is that I cannot reproduce this problem
here, so it's clearly something in your environment.  I don't know if
it's something we can "fix" in gnucash or not.
