It's probably worth posting this on aqbanking-devel. The author  
monitors at least one of the gnucash lists, but he probably didn't  
read anything that mentioned fink.

I just looked at my ofx logs, and neither my version of gnucash trunk,  
nor my fink installed gnucash 2.2.7 sends anything beyond the date for  
DTSTART with aqbanking 3.8.0. Last week one  of them did (don't know  
which), but still no fractional seconds or timezone info.

Which version of  gtk+2 is installed (mine is only 2.12.11, not the  
most recent 2.14.4)?
