Richard, I haven't confirmed it, but I think the problem is that the
handling of null const-strings has changed in the latest g-wrap.

I think a NULL const string on the C side is converted to scheme #f.

I uninstalled g-wrap 0.9.5 and installed 0.9.12.  gnucash-1.4.7, 1.4.8, and 1.5.2 all worked OK.  I then recompiled 1.5.2 and it still worked.  Perhaps the problem is in 1.5.3?  In any event, the above patch should fix the bug, no matter where it is.
