[Graeme Gellatly <922077@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This patch is incorrect anyway.  In fact the title is wrong.  In Anglosaxon
accounting we do not care about the price on the purchase order, after all
it creates no accounting entries.  When calculating the price difference it
is the price we receipted the goods at that matters. This patch makes the
assumption that the po line price is the price the goods were receipted at
(or indeed there was even a po).  The price difference must be between the
move and the invoice.  Also FYI price has been stored against moves since
6.0 for goods at average cost.  And if the product is using standard cost
then the correct price difference is standard cost compared to invoice
cost, however there is a time danger here in that if standard cost changes
it creates incorrect entries (actually you see this manifested with average
cost today).
