[GNC] gunzip test.gnucash fails

[John Ralls]

gzip requires the compressed filename to end in `.gz`, which it will remove from the name of the uncompressed file. Just rename the file to test.gnucash.gz and unzip that:

mv test.gnucash test.gnucash.gz
gunzip test.gnucash.gz
emacs test.gnucash

Regards,
John Ralls
