Also, in Comment 1 his screenshot shows that the Expense and Rebate columns are both blank.  In my case, the Balance column is blank, and it affects all new transactions going forward (they continue to be blank).

The account type is setup as mutual fund.  Sporadically, I can enter a transaction where it will not show the new account balance in the last column of the register.  It also does not show on the main account page.  The other account transferring to or from shows it's balance ok, even if it is a transfer between two mutual fund accounts.  I think the resolution has been to shutdown GC and restart.  Am I doing something wrong?

Yes, any transaction that has splits in different currencies/commodities is treated the same internally. Please add a comment on the bug with your version of the problem. By all means add your own screenshots.
