I performed a git clone of the maint branch on July 31st, built and
have been using it successfully since.  Today I performed a git pull in
the unmodified clone.  Now using the freshly compiled gnucash, when opening a 
saved (via save as) copy
of a previously okay gnucash file I get the error:
"There was an error parsing the file".

Uncompressing and doing an sdiff -s on the original file and the non-working 
saved file:
mbp:gnucashSaves chris$ sdiff -s ok.gnucash bad.gnucash

mbp:gnucashSaves chris$

It turns out that each of the above lines appears twice in the non-working 
file.  After
manually removing the duplicates, the file opens just fine.

Thoughts...
