Summary: Reports don't render if currency prefix has special chars

Initial Comment:
If the prefix for a currency includes Special Pattern Characters as defined for java.text.DecimalFormat the Jasper reports (like Profit/Loss) fail to render. jGnucash should escape those characters before using the prefix in a pattern for formatting numbers

Message:
Fix is SVN.  Solution was to pass a Format object instead of a String based
pattern to the column builder in DynamicJasper.  It then correctly handles
currency formating internally.

Thanks again for the bug report and diagnosis of the problem.  The root
cause would not have been obvious.

Regards,
Craig

Swiss Francs (CHF) is causing the problem for me. If I use the Prefix
"SFr." (See screenshot) the reports don't work. If I remove the "." from
the Prefix everything works fine. I think the problem happens with any
currency if the user uses special chars as prefix-

What currency specifically is causing the problem?  Trying to reproduce the
problem at my end.

Thanks
