Keep in mind that gnucash does not store the price in the register, it
stores the #shares and total $value. Are you saying you would have a mil
in the total value of the split?

Unfortunate. My use case is stock that has split. The suggested way to
record this change in basis in GnuCash is to sell all the stock, and then
rebuy at the split quantities at the new pricing. This will lead to
amounts that are fractions of a penny, but simply cannot be recorded in
GnuCash with the current restriction.
Even worse is when a spinoff happens and needs to be recorded. The basis
of the stock needs to be modified, but the only way I can see is to "sell"
and "buy" at the new basis, but the total amount per purchase cannot be in
fractions of a penny.
When I have over 100 lots to do this to, the rounding to the nearest penny
will catch up...

No, no more than you can get a 10th of a penny at the bank or the grocery
store. Prices can be in fractions of a penny, amounts cannot.
