One of two ways.  1) Fake out Gnucash by tweaking your F::Q module to
masquerade as a price source that you aren't using (say Trustnet) and
then install the module with the name of that other price source.  2)
Compile your own gnucash from the cvs HEAD revision.  The code is
already implemented for the next major release of gnucash to find and
list all installed F::Q price sources.  The next gnucash may not have a
pretty name for the source, but it will list it.

P.S. Don't forget to upload your module to the F::Q pages on
sourceforge.
