[GNC] GnuCash build 5.13

[John Ralls]

Sherlock,

It’s real. I reproduced it on GnuCash 5.13. I suspect that it’s another side effect of https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/commit/4c09a0feee698855f095f9729a4856033cbd0522. gnc_state_save is called immediately *after* gnc_close_gui_component_by_session which is supposed to destroy all of the GUI components having the state, thereby relying on the components being leaked.

Regards,
John Ralls
