Native Quartz version of gnucash

Hi,

My knowledge is based on (long years) on unix/linux and it works on 10.4 too
where X11 behaves the same as on linuxes/unixes.
Seeing your answer I googled around and it seems that "things"  have changed
in 10.5.
See this article <
http://www.macworld.com/article/139383/2009/03/fontcacheclear.html>. It
describes another issue, but it still might help.
You could try that.
