QIF import fails under 1.8.0

[Derek Atkins]

Does NOBODY read the archives?

This is a known bug.  change src/import-export/qif-import/qif-file.scm
(around line 449) and add "'date" to the end of the expression as one
more argument.  This has been fixed in CVS and I expect there to be a
1.8.1 release to solve this problem RSN.
