I am rather suggesting to try on another machine, either another
physical machine or otherwise a virtual machine.

I could turn your question around: what evidence do you have that the
problem comes from Debian, given the large number of non-Debian packages
that you have installed, and given the fact that I cannot reproduce your
problem?

I confirm that on a pure and up-to-date Squeeze system, I can launch
GnuCash 2.2.9-10 fine.

No, it comes from this unofficial repository:

 http://mozilla.debian.net/

Note that even though this repository is run by a Debian Developer, it
is not an official repository of the Debian project, and therefore is
unsupported by Debian. As a general rule, anything that is not hosted on
debian.org is not part of Debian (in particular, stuff on debian.net is
*not* part of Debian).
