Before I tried to open Gnwucash under 2.4.x, I opened under 2.6.5 and
then went to Actions>scheduled transaction>since last run> and the list
comes up. Selected the transaction you labelled as troublesome and
noted that I had selected <postpone> and that the date associated was
1969. ( I don’t know where that came from.) In that SX screen I
changed options and selected <to create> and then <ok>. Lo and behold I
could now get into SX editor and no transaction for 1969 was created.
Same thing happens if I say <ignore>. Calendar editor window opens as
expected. When I go to the troublesome transaction in the now open
editor then go to <toolbar><scheduled> and try and delete the offending
transaction Gnwucash crashes. At this point I have transaction
editor(SX) now available but I cannot delete the original transaction
and it does not have the <postpone> label. I do get a new crash report
after I try to delete it and Gnucash crashes.
Bottom line: You astutely labeled the offending transaction. I think
the root cause has something to do with my selection of <postponed>.
Whatever happened I now can’t get rid of the transaction although the
SX editor seems to be Ok. Doug is my younger brother. He’ll be happy
to know he is now a permanent part of my financial records.
As you have the data file maybe you can see that same interesting
behavior.

Theoretically an SX is a transaction that works with a time difference.
That is certainly the view maintained over in dev.
Logically either the transaction is wrong or the schedule is wrong.
You tell us which and see the dev people think.
