I’ve found no occurrences here: http://www.google.fr/codesearch?q=SCM_%28GLOBAL_%29%3FSYMBOL&hl=fr&btnG=Rechercher+du+code “grep -r -E \ 'SCM_(GLOBAL_)?SYMBOL[[:blank:]]*\([^,]+,[[:blank:]]*[^"]+\)' \ gnucash-2.2.9 guile-avahi guile-cairo-1.4.0 \ guile-gnome-platform-2.16.1 gnutls mailutils-2.1 snd-9.4” doesn’t show any occurrence either. So I’d be tempted to merge this in. What do you think? Ludo’.
