This turned out to be maintainer error. Gnucash2 needs a dependency on  
perl586, or better yet a reworking of the dependencies to accept  
either 586 or 588 variants. I'll start testing that.

There is also an upstream problem, in that the extra utility gnucash  
provides to test finance-quote is hard coded to use /usr/bin/perl.  
They're going to fix that.
