Template Transaction bug in 2.4.2

Bugzilla seems to be down, so I'll mention here that I've encountered a
problem with a scheduled transaction in the current release (2.4.2) under
Windows: tokens aren't handled in formulae as they were previously.

I have a mortgage payment template that splits principal, interest, and
escrow.  The escrow payment in the template is "hardwired" as 709.24+4.27
(current payment plus pro-rated shortage).  Split lines allow entry of
principal and interest via the tokens 'prin' and 'int'.  The total
transaction amount (in the Tot Funds Out column) is expressed as
print+int+709.24+4.27.

Now, this expression was evaluated correctly in 2.2.9, but under 2.4.2 the
tokens are being ignored in the compound expression, which is to say the
expression evaluates to 713.51 (709.24+4.27) leaving the transaction
unbalanced.  I thinkered a bit with changes in formatting but no joy.
