BB&T and AqBanking

Folks I thought I'd share this with anyone else in the US using BB&T and 
Gnucash/AqBanking.  Basically AqBanking used to work until perhaps the 
beginning of the year at which point they decided to make a security 
change.  For me, I needed to rebuild the gwenhywfar library, but make 
the change mentioned in the thread by deleting the code I didn't want 
and enabling the section the Gwenhwfar people disabled.  Note that 
building the library required me to download a few development libraries.

However, rather than setting the environment variable to the one 
mentioned on the thread, I used:

export GWEN_TLS_CIPHER_PRIORITIES="NORMAL:-VERS-TLS-ALL:+VERS-TLS1.0"

I glossed over many steps, but wanted to point out the one above and now 
it works.  I suspect it would be much easier if every bank would give up 
on OFX and anything Intuit, and just set up a web service for these things.

Best,
Ben
