Actually what it says in this post is:
Coordination with section 988(c)(1)(C)(ii). No exchange gain or loss is recognized with respect to the following transactions -.
(A) An exchange of units of nonfunctional currency for different units of the same nonfunctional currency;
(B) The deposit of nonfunctional currency in a demand or time deposit or similar instrument (including a certificate of deposit) issued by a bank or other financial institution if such instrument is denominated in such currency.
Thus gains or losses are not recognized in Section 988 transactions.
