Opening balance reconciling investment account incorrect.

[hnaparst]

I am glad you could reproduce the bug.  I found the account-map file, but
it has a lot of personal information in it, and I am not sure how to send
it across in a non-public way.  Do you need it if you are in fact already
able to reproduce the bug?

Regards,
Harold
