Try installing the g-wrap-1.3.4 RPM, also available from the
GnuCash web site.

Where did you get the g-wrap-1.3.4 RPM?  You need to make sure that
you grabbed the right version.

Yep.  It works just fine, provided you have the correct set of
libraries installed.  In particular, you need to make sure the guile,
g-wrap, and gnucash were all built "together".  The packages on the
GnuCash site all were -- so make sure you pull down the right
combination.
