Stack overflow in main.scm

[David Reiser]

I get a stack overflow when trying to run a Cash Flow report in  
gnucash built either from the 2.3.7 tarball or svn r18372. But it is a  
different error in each case.

In both cases, just launch gnucash ( I have about 8 registers open by  
default) and pick the Cash Flow report. The progress bar nearly  
completes before the crash.

cash flow report from tarball-built (2.3.7):

Stack overflow

The only difference should be that the swig I use for trunk builds is  
1.3.40 vs. whatever version is used for constructing the tarballs.

Mac OS X 10.6.1, Apple's gcc 4.2.1, guile 1.8.6, slib 3b1 (plus a  
guile patch for slib committed to their trunk just after 3b1 was  
released)
