Thanks to everyone for input in this thread! Thanks Red for the code 
change! I'll try that later today and over a few weeks. If it doesn't work 
for all of my trades I'll see if I can refine it further.

Another question: Given that there are some bugs in the beangrow code and 
it is not actively maintained, is there any other tool in the beancount 
ecosystem that can calculate IRR per group of investments in a similar way 
to beangrow, but correctly?


The challenging and overwhelmingly major part of getting returns 
computations right is building the cash flows correctly. Beangrow does that 
well, and that seems to be functioning correctly. Solving for the XIRR 
formula is a small part at the end. I'm not even fully convinced this bug 
always existed. Anyway, IMHO, I'd recommend using beangrow, and fixing 
whatever minor thing needs to be fixed if at all you're handy with a bit of 
code.

If that's not an option for you, another idea is to simply take the 
cashflows that Beangrow generates and stick them into Excel and use Excel's 
XIRR.
