Hi John --

Thanks for your help on this.  

When I run according to your instructions I get a brief error message
that libdbi is unable to load the driver -- and it still is not working
(see below).  I could not find a gnucash.trace file under /var as well.

```
~ $ /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash
Application Path /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash-bin

(process:4934): gnc.gui-WARNING **: [mac_set_languages()] Language list:
en:en_US:C
(null)
libdbi: Failed to load driver:
/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/lib/dbd/libdbdpgsql.so
^C

~ $ otool -L
/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/lib/dbd/libdbdpgsql.so
/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/lib/dbd/libdbdpgsql.so:
	/Users/gnucash/gnucash-stable/lib/libpq.5.dylib (compatibility
	version 5.0.0, current version 5.9.0)
	/Users/gnucash/gnucash-stable/lib/libdbi.1.dylib (compatibility
	version 3.0.0, current version 3.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current
	version 1252.0.0)
```

Cheers,
