"System error" is a statement that something outside the control of
gnucash or F::Q threw an error.  Its usually a pain to track down.

How many quote sources do you use from within gnucash?  Did you try
*each one* of them using dump-finance-quote?  This often turns out to
only be a problem with a single quote source, and in those cases is
frequently a missing perl library.
