After some digging, I discovered that the problem was caused by a
couple of hundred trailing spaces inserted into a check number field by
the Moneydance export. So the bug in GnuCash is simply a failure to
trim whitespace from imported data and/or check for various kinds of
garbage -- definitely not serious!
Great release, guys. Looks like GnuCash 1.4 is my new personal
finance program.
