Thanks, Christian.  That additional information is good for me to know.

Since I last wrote I found that the errors are still present in the same 
modules.  Not surprising based on what you wrote below.  

Using your advice from a previous memo, I expect either (a) to fix the errors, 
or (b) to advise the developers of action taken to get around an unfixed 
problem.  This would be when I submit a patch for consideration.

I appreciate your support.

Tom

In SVN, the revision numbers are always strictly monotonically increasing, but 
they might have "gaps". That is, in the gnucash-docs/trunk directory there 
haven't been any changes between 19355 and 19360 (but elsewhere in the 
repository there have been changes). This means in terms of the gnucash-docs 
directory, the content corresponding to these two revision numbers is 
completely identical.

Also, when switching between different revision numbers, usually you don't 
accidentally "do any harm" in SVN. If the unlikely event of a source file 
conflict occurs, you will clearly get some messages about "Conflict". If those 
don't occur, no problem whatsoever occurred.

Regards,

Christian
