Playing around, I managed to trigger the error message.

I selected an account and then clicked the edit button. I then tried to 
re-assign it to itself as the parent. Of course, this is impossible.

gnc actually does some well thought out movements if you delete an account instead of moving it, if you want to experiment you create a new account, delete the old one and see if it does what you expect.

Not sure if that’s what happened in your case. And for me, I recall now naming 
did play a part. Because I had some accounts very similarly named and I wasn’t 
paying close enough attention to the tree, I was attempting to place an account 
under itself rather than a different account.

If you can repeat that it is probably worth while doing a bug file.

placing accounts with the same name in a tree works very well in gnc as a rule
