Workaround:
The only way to get a chart of accounts with four digits, is to remove the following info (in this order!):

The same happens if you install "sale".
Sales installs account_voucher.
account_voucher installs account.
The only way to prevent against automatic creation of 6 digits is starting (!!)
by installing account_accounting. It is the only possibility to choose the
digits of your account charts.
Imho it is critical bug and even the issue was already in versions before.
Thanks for describing a manual way to fix.
