I just checked in a series of changes to the Advanced Portfolio report. 
This turned out to be a bigger job than I expected.  Every time I 
started pulling on a thread something else unravelled.  I'm pretty sure 
it works better than before, but I'm also sure there are still bugs, 
including possibly some I've introduced.

If you want to try this and don't want to wait for it to appear in a 
distribution, it should be possible to drop it in to any GnuCash 2.6 
installation.  It might also work in 2.4, but I haven't tried that. 
The one file that has changed is 
share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report/standard-reports/advanced-portfolio.scm 
and the new version can be found at

<http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/browser/gnucash/trunk/src/report/standard-reports/advanced-portfolio.scm>

If you replace this file in your installation Guile will issue a few 
messages about compiling it the next time you run GnuCash.  These can 
safely be ignored.  Make sure you have a backup before you replace the 
file in case something goes wrong.

If you try it and find problems, let me know.
