Thanks, Dave, (and others) who mentioned --enable-ofx in the configure
step.  It seemed to work.  OFX/QFX is now an option under "import".

Unfortunately, it doesn't work.  The result on importing a file looks
like:
LibOFX INFO: libofx_proc_file(): File format not specified,
autodecting...

A very similar set of messages happens when I use version 1.8.10.  I am
using Ubuntu Breezy Badger and the 1.8.10 came in a .deb package, so I
am pretty sure it is a good copy.  The above messages came from my
compiled version 2.0.2, on an OFX file, but I received slightly
different messages, ending in the malloc error, on two different QFX
files, all downloaded from my Merrill Lynch account.

Can anyone give me some idea of how to track this error down?
