OK, here is something that sort of shows my problem:

<<<<---- CUT HERE test.dat---->>>>

2011/02/17 * (AUTO) VIFSX
    Assets:Standard:Deferred            (701.11/102.27 VIFSX)

    Assets:Standard:Matching            (350.56/102.27 VIFSX)
    Income:Exempt:Matching                  $-350.56

2011/03/03 * (AUTO) VIFSX

    Assets:Standard:Deferred                $-701.11

2011/03/06  (MAN) Sell everything
   Assets:Standard:Deferred  -13.76 VIFSX @ $107.56
   Assets:Standard:Matching  -3.43 VIFSX @ $107.56
   Assets:Fidelity

           $-1752.78
         17.18 VIFSX


21:21:38 ~/FinanceData (master) > ledger -f test.dat bal
             $446.74

--------------------
              $96.18
         -0.01 VIFSX


Notice the -0.01 VIFSX still left in the ASSETS even though I "sold"
everything in the uncleared transaction.
