Finance::Quote and TiaaCref

[David Reiser]

Sometime between 9/14 and today, my installation of gnucash and  
finance::quote quit being able to retrieve quotes from TIAA-CREF.  
Tonight I get:

% dump-finance-quote yahoo AAPL
Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:
     symbol: AAPL                 <=== required
       date: 09/23/2005           <=== required
   currency: USD                  <=== required
       last: 53.20                <=\
        nav:                      <=== one of these
      price: 53.20                <=/
   timezone:                      <=== optional

but

% dump-finance-quote tiaacref CREFstok

instead. for CREFSTOK failed!!  Found data for stock(s)
instead.ata for stock(s) CREFstok,
   Found data for stock(s) CREFstok, CREFstok has no data available  
for selected  instead.

The price editor will retrieve all the other quotes I normally  
download, but it won't get the TIAA-CREF retirement fund quotes.

I'm using fink on a Mac, and I acquired the finance-quote-pm586  
modules in May when I upgraded my system to OSX 10.4. But I don't  
know if my environment might still have been using an older version  
of F::Q that hadn't been removed (I had two older version around...).
