These are gnucash-1.4 XML (or maybe 1.6 -- I forget when we changed
the way transactions were encoded).
For those interested in the history, previously accounts had two
parts, a commodity and a currency. Instead of each transaction having
a common currency, the accounts had a currency and the transaction had
to use common-currency accounts. In order to go between different
currencies you used a Currency Account to translate. Obviously this
has all been changed.
