Ian, can I get an update on what you are working on? I've made a whole bunch
of changes to the QIF importer .scm files recently. A bunch of the patches
have been committed, but there are seven more patches waiting to be reviewed
and I think I'll need to wait for them before diving in again. In the
meantime there are a few bugs in the druid (509089, 512173, 512208) that
should be fairly easy to fix, so I could work on the C code to fix those.
Are you actively working on druid-qif-import.c?  If so, does your version
differ from the latest SVN version much?
