I used to solve this by changing the code of the file swiftmt940 in the map Files\gnucash\share\aqbanking\imexporters\swift\profiles. The code I used to solve this was:

Are you using the application bundle from our website or MacPorts?

What file did you change? Did you actually change the version from 5.4.10 to 2.3.3?

Are there any useful messages in your tracefile [1] or in the console log (use /Applications/Utilities/Console.app to view it)?
