fine with me, I just happen to have this specific issue solved, as it
blocked me some time ago. I am sure that the official solution will be
more complete.

Title:
  account/Balance Sheet Report: accounts should show negative balances
  in case of credit asset or debit liability

Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Hi,

  in 6.0 and in trunk, when the balance sheet report is printed out, it
  is impossible to point out asset accounts with a negative balance or a
  liabilities with a positive balance. Consider the following situation:
  an asset (say, a bank account) which happens to have a negative
  balance does not show up with a negative sum. Therefore, it looks to
  the employee as if the bank account has a positive balance. There are
  a number of other scenarios in which this problem occurs, such as a
  VAT return in case of a net loss.

  Note that the end sum of the balance sheet is correct, but if you add
  up all the numbers manually you end up with a different and wrong
  number (the amounts are simply run through abs() in the RML).

  Regards,
  Stefan.
