Good question.  I had a number of accounts in my file which had a 
gains-act slot that was keyed with ISO4217::USD.  These all stopped 
working when the currency category was changed until I added new 
entries keyed with CURRENCY::USD.  Right now gnucash is not consistent 
about what name it's going to use for this.
