Larry If your withdrawals from the RRSP are taxable on withdrawal then I think your approach of using two files recording transfers to your bank account from the RRSP as Expenses in the RRSP account and Income in your main accounts should work fine as it will satisfy the accounting equation in both files without any conflicts and will keep Gnucash happy.
With both the RRSP and your bank accounts in a single file, the decrease of an asset (RRSP) is a credit to that account and an increase in Income (which it would have to be to record it as income for taxation) is also a credit to the income account in that same file, which would not be a balanced transaction in which the sum of debits and credits is zero.
