Canadian Mutual Fund Quotes

[Stephen J. Gowdy]

That was really neat having this post today. I have a similar problem with 
UK funds. However, after applying that patch a Vanguard one no longer 
works... so with the patch I can get the UK ones plus some other US ones. 
Without the patch I can get all the US ones... What is strange is that the 
patch is only to Finance::Quota::Yahoo::Base... so why that effects 
Vanguard I don't know.

It is the change in the @FIELDS entry, the first part of the patch. If I 
add another VANFIELDS array and then a base_van_labels method it almost 
works... I just need to find a way later in that Yahoo::Base file to 
switch the use of FIELDS/VANFIELDS depending if we are using vanguard or 
anything else... not obvious to me right now.
