Patch to get the initial value of the negative is red option (623 bytes, patch)

Description Mike Alexander 2007-02-26 22:17:16 UTC 
If the "Display negative amounts in red" option is off when GnuCash starts up, registers still show negative amounts in red until the option is changed.  To see what I mean, run GnuCash, turn this option off, and exit GnuCash.  Then start it up again and (without touching the preferences dialog) open a register for an account that has negative balances.  The negative balances will be red even though the option is off.

The problem is that the one time initialization code in split-register-model.c fails to get the current value for KEY_NEGATIVE_IN_RED when it registers the call back for changes in this key.  I'll attach a patch to fix this.
