[GNC] Reconciliation oddity.

[GNC] Reconciliation discrepancies

Every now and then one of my bank accounts doesn't reconcile because what the bank shows differs from what GnuCash shows. The amounts are significant. What puzzles me is that the previous month's balances (bank and GC) match and so do all the transactions. But, the end of month balances don't
