Thanks lee, you were exactly right. I downgraded g-wrap from version
1.3.2 to 1.2.1, and then in gnucash's source directory did a make
distclean; ./configure && make && make install, and it worked like a
charm. GnuCash 1.6.6 is up and running now. I'm cc'ing the list
just so the solution makes it into the mail archives so someone else
can figure it out a little sooner.
