Accuracy issues importing QIF files with split transactions

That looks very similar.  Although, after digging through some more of my errors, I've also discovered there are many more combinations.

QIF --> Gnucash
.83    .85
.78    .79
.73    .72
.65    .66
.64    .65
.63    .64
.50    .51
.42    .41
.41    .40
.40    .39
.34    .33

.03    .04

I'll try to get setup for Bugzilla and add notes to the bug.

Sounds like https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721447 .
