I figured out what is going on.  The native version of Gnucash only 
reads ~/.gtkrc-2.0.gnucash while the X Window version first reads 
~/.gtkrc-2.0 then reads that file.  I used the fs_usage command with 
both versions to determine this, then verified it by modifying the 
contents of the files and launching both versions several times.

If I set the font to Arial 12 it displays the Ghana currency symbol.
