This might help me solve it but I'm not quite following. If I do a new checkout and then build in an empty separate build directory, wouldn't that avoid the problem? Where would the installed libgnc* be that causes the problem that I would have to clear out? In /usr/lib64/gnucash? If I change anything there, wouldn't that mess up the Fedora installed gnucash package?
By the way, I'm getting the same problem on three separate systems: a Fedora 24, a Fedora 25 and a Fedora 25 VM, so if it is some strange system configuration I have, then I have it on three systems, not just one. I think I'll try a new VM of Fedora 26 that just came out and see if it works there.
