And those two qint64s will go as part of a first step in Alkimia. They will be 
replaced with a single mpq_t from gmp (http://gmplib.org/) which gives us 
arbitrary precision. The influence on the (current) MyMoneyMoney interface 
should be minimal (at least my plan), though we might use a new more 
generalized name for it (etc. AlkValue).
