[GNC] Gnucash terminates immediately

[Bostjan Vilfan]

I managed to obtain the trace file (which, however, is very short). When I
called gnucash without further parameters the trace file was empty;
however, when I used "gnucash --debug --extra I obtained

* 17:19:03  INFO <gnc.gui> [main] System locale returned C
* 17:19:03  INFO <gnc.gui> [main] Effective locale set to C.
* 17:19:03  INFO <gnc.engine> [gnc_hook_lookup] no hook lists

Is the phrase "no hook lists" relevant?
