The above two are definitely GtK/Gnome related. It looks like someone
wrote some sloppy code.

The above is also likely a Gtk/Gnome issue. Although, it could just be a
normal response from Gnome when the X server shuts down.
Generally, these "errors" that occur on shutdown can be ignored, as long
as they don't lead to corrupted data or applications. X apps in general
seem to spew a lot of messages while running.
