Hi, all.  I just tried to compile gnucash svn today on my debian testing 
amd64 box.  It fails with the following compiler warning:

  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"gnc.engine\" 
-I../../lib/libc -I../../src/core-utils -I../../src -I../../src

engine-helpers.c:2162: warning: passing argument 1 of 
'SWIG_Guile_NewPointerObj' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
make[5]: *** [engine-helpers.lo] Error 1

This fixes the build for me:
