Problem Building gnucash

Hi Stephen!

I should have mentioned that it was r16524
http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/changeset/16524

The commands (above and below the sleep) work correctly by themselves, but,
when run in a script, it seems that the files unzipped by the first command
are not seen by the second command. I'm not sure of the exact reason for
this, but adding even a minor delay allows the files to be seen.

I guess I could investigate if
-unzip returns before it is finished extracting the files (unlikey to cause
this problem. We unzip other files but always have a delay, as unzip has a
lot of files to unzip and would need the directory to unzip them to), or
-msys/windows isn't synchronizing nicely to realize that the files are
there.

But as it's only adding 1 second to the build, I'm doubtful if it's worth
investigating further.

Nathan
