Hi Christian

It was rather late when I got it all working and now I can't honestly remember  
the exact order of what I did.  I'll restore yesterday's backup and go through 
it again if you think it's a useful exercise.  I'll do:
1. make from backup.
2. remove gnucash_core.c, then make
3. Edit gnucash_core.py then make.
That should cover the possibilities you mention.

Off out for the morning so I'll post again later.
