Anyhow I just made myself a bugzilla account ;-)
And will be trying to reopen bug 801 because the fix posted by Craig 
https://github.com/jwiegley/ledger/commit/25f063ab7cb0af91891ed7e0a9948eb2e884be42
is incomplete sadly enough. 

Note that it's a bug report which I originally posted on the github issues 
page https://github.com/jwiegley/ledger/issues/83, which and is still left 
open there.
Disabling the gitbug issues page would prevent the need to manage issues on 
two fronts.

Ps: in the issue I also included the patch that would fix it. Is there a 
means for me to push it to the repo directly thus reporting and fixing the 
bug at the same time or is access to the repo strictly regulated and only 
possible to a few people? which I would totally underdstand to be honest! 
Although I would suggest to try and use/review the supplied patch in those 
cases where one is provided ;-)
