I now have several hundred 0.01 or 0.02 adjustments throughout my accounts.  I think this may also mean I have an unknown number of transactions that have errors but did not have an Imbalance entry added to them.  I have verified the QIF file in a text editor, and the values there look correct.  I'm using Gnucash 2.6.0 on Windows 7, and have replicated it on two different systems with both a large QIF file and a very simple one.
