[GNC] OFX import, wrong base account

I tried to import an OFX from a different institution, a credit card 
this time, it was a bank last time.   It used the same account as the 
Source Account.
I tried a trick I found on the list from a decade ago, delete the 
account, and move all transaction to a new account.  No go.   Now it 
seemed to randomly pick another account as the Source Account.
