GnuCash 2.6.4 released

[David Gillam]

Results on OSX 10.9.5:

2.6.3 = GOOD
2.6.4-1 = CRASH
2.6.4-2 = REALLY slow startup on first round, but eventually opened and appeared ok, but after a clean stop it now refuses to start up again--get opening logo screen, then about 20 seconds later, it just aborts.

Reverting back to 2.6.3 works.
