It is not fixed.  I believe this is a problem with -current.  I have
been using FreeBSD 5-current lately and as of about a week ago gnucash
was working fine with it.  After a couple of -current updates I went
to use gnucash and discovered that the dates were messed up for
transactions.  I rebuilt guile and now I can no longer even launch
gnucash because I get the problem reported in this PR.

Unfortunately I do not know _exactly_ when it broke.  I do know that
updating to gnucash-1.8.2 does _not_ fix the problem on -current.
