Those messages do not come from gnuplot.

That is, of course they are an indirect result of running gnuplot
but it seems they indicate a non-fatal status check inside glib itself.

See for example this thread:

 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23199699/glib-critical-source-id-xxx-was-not-found-when-attempting-to-remove-it

The warning message was introduced by this change to glib:

 https://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/commit/?id=a919be3d39150328874ff647fb2c2be7af3df996

Hmm.  That's not much to work with as a symptom.
Does this happen immediately on startup, or when you're in the middle
of plotting, or what?
