Depends. If there's really something that we did wrong in Gnucash, then yes, we 
need to fix that. But it sure smells like it's a problem in Fedora's build of 
libdbi. That's why I suggested that you build all three (libdbi, 
libdbi-drivers, and sqlite3) from source (they're quite small, it won't take 
long). If it still reproduces, then you've got sources and can do a debug build 
of those three libraries and find the problem. If it doesn't reproduce, then 
it's not our problem and there's no reason to hold up the release.
