That's in
   (use-modules (srfi srfi-13)) ; string-handling
I still don't understand why it doesn't complain on my system.  I'll 
have to read up on use-modules etc.

Hmm.  I've only tested it by putting

   (load-from-path "/home/chris/.gnucash/balsheet-eg.scm")

into ~/.gnucash/config.user.  I haven't tried defining it as a 
'standard' report.  Maybe that makes a difference -- perhaps modules in 
config.user are loaded later, when more modules are available???
