Finance-Quote 1.42 released!

[brad]

I got the system error in gnucash yesterday too, with FQ 1.40. I'm not 
getting that error right now, but not getting the quotes either.   I've 
updated to 1.43

Running the identical gnc-fq-dump cmd, sometimes gives an error & 
sometimes works

gnc-fq-dump -v alphavantage IWD
--- snip non useful bits ...

just a few seconds later it works

gnc-fq-dump -v alphavantage IWD
