I have added build instructions to the wiki [1]. I had a look at the packaged version of gnucash in the Ubuntu 12.04 repository and realised that this suffers from the same problem (though the symptom is not exactly the same hence I did not realise this previously) so I have submitted a bug to launchpad [2] in the hope that the package manager there will be able to redirect the bug to the appropriate package. I presume that the package manager is not here?
