Attached is a patch that imports GncNumeric rounding constants and all
the Account codes into gnucash.gnucash_core. They also thus become
available in the most simple way:
from gnucash import ACCT_TYPE_LIABILITY
Apply with -p0.

I've noticed some of the posts from folks who have had trouble with the
python bindings in recent months. Sorry for not responding yet, I only
saw them recently because I filter gnucash-devel into a folder I haven't
been able to look at much. I've updated my filters to isolate posts with
python in the subject so I can stay on top of these.
