Heh, thanks for letting us know. I was starting to feel lonely here :)
Ok, let's continue to look at this here then. I did change the subject of the
mails going forward.

Of course I'm not 100% sure, but I would doubt that in this case. The code
that writes the preferences in gconf is completely different from the code
that writes the reconcile flag.
But obviously, we can only know by measuring.
Ron,
Are you willing to run a test for this, here's what I'd like you to do:
* Start GnuCash
* Run reconcile on the bank account
* Choose your end date such that it the only transaction to reconcile is the
offending one.
* Mark the offending transaction as reconciled
* Click finish
=> Just to check: the offending transaction is still not marked as "y" ?
* Save and quit
* Find the most recent gnucash trace file and attach it here.
