Bisect automates one of the most irritating parts for me -- keeping track of where I am, so it was worth it to go to git. I did have some adventures along the way.:)

My 2.4 install is interfering with running trunk. With my 2.4 build installed (in a directory that is in my typical path) when I launch an install of trunk (outside my normal PATH) I get:

* 14:39:46 DEBUG <gnc.scm> stdrpt-dir=/sw/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report/standard-reports
* 14:39:47 DEBUG <gnc.scm> dir-files=(trial-balance.scm transaction.scm sx-summary.scm register.scm price-scatter.scm portfolio.scm net-barchart.scm income-statement.scm general-ledger.scm general-journal.scm equity-statement.scm daily-reports.scm category-barchart.scm cash-flow.scm budget.scm budget-income-statement.scm budget-flow.scm budget-barchart.scm budget-balance-sheet.scm balsheet-eg.scm balance-sheet.scm average-balance.scm advanced-portfolio.scm account-summary.scm account-piecharts.scm)

If I remove my 2.4 install and launch the same trunk build, I get:

* 14:43:42 DEBUG <gnc.scm> stdrpt-dir=/opt/gnucash-svn/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report/standard-reports
* 14:43:42 DEBUG <gnc.scm> dir-files=(trial-balance.scm transaction.scm sx-summary.scm register.scm price-scatter.scm portfolio.scm net-barchart.scm income-statement.scm general-ledger.scm general-journal.scm equity-statement.scm daily-reports.scm category-barchart.scm cash-flow.scm budget.scm budget-income-statement.scm budget-flow.scm budget-barchart.scm budget-balance-sheet.scm balance-sheet.scm average-balance.scm advanced-portfolio.scm account-summary.scm account-piecharts.scm)

Nothing in /opt is in my PATH usually.

Is there a way to get guile/scheme to look in $prefix first?
