Yes, ktrace.  It was a lot of output but I see the problem.  GnuCash is
looking in /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/gnome/help/gnucash.  That double gnome
is the problem.

The FreeBSD port sets the GNOME datadir to ${PREFIX}/share/gnome, so in
my case it was /usr/X11R6/share/gnome.  The configure script of GnuCash
sets GNC_HELPDIR to $(datadir)/gnome/help/gnucash so that is where the
double "gnome" is coming from.  I have fixed it now.

Thanks everyone for the help.
