How in the heck do you figure out the cot basis? No throw in some options and protective puts (which I think qualify as a straddle) and you have one, huge mess.

Yes you do. I don't have an answer for you. If my trading was that complex, I'd setup an Excel spreadsheet. I'm surprised Quicken won't calculate gains and losses on a short sale correctly. You need to contact them directly - their phone number is in the help menus.
