Sorry to say this, but that effort is not really helpful. The autotools builds of aqbanking and gwenhywfar build just fine (with a few tweaks to make them build easily with the Qt frameworks) in the jhbuild environment required for all of the other dependencies (and for Gnucash itself), so there's no real advantage to using a framework bundle for gwen and aq. Besides, they're frameworks only in name, so none of the framework linking magic is available.
