QIFIO.c is not used in 1.3.3 anymore. I'm not familiar with the new
scheme code (Bill Gribble would know the details of what happens
where). The new importer does try to be smarter about matching
splits.
The QIFIO.c importer, used in 1.3.2, requires that two splits
be identical in all fields except the reconcile field in order
for a match to occur. Typically, in Quicken, splits that are
supposed to match will differ in the Num field, for example.
xaccTransMatch is called by xaccConsolidateTransactions which
is called after the qif is imported by QIFIO.c to try to eliminate
duplicate transactions. Again, this is only for 1.3.2.

Yes, definitely.

Here is how I build one:
cvs export -r gnucash-1-3-3 -d gnucash-1.3.3 gnucash
(that makes a directory gnucash-1.3.3 with the 1.3.3 release in it)
tar cvzf gnucash-1.3.3.tar.gz gnucash-1.3.3
(that makes the tar file. now move the tar file to the SOURCES
directory in your distribution. copy the gnucash.spec file to
the SPECS directory. Since you got 1.3.2 to compile you should
have all the needed libraries.)
(in the SPECS directory)
unset LINGUAS ; rpm -ba gnucash.spec
(that will build binary and src rpms. use -bb if you just
want the binary rpm.)
