Hmmm, this looks like possibly a nasty race condition. By default, gopen asks the workspace manager application, i.e., GWorkspace.app, to start the requested application. If the workspace manager is not running, it will be launched first. So this is happening for you. But apparently this instance appears of the workspace manager appears not to respond (note the 'Application seems to have hung' message; maybe startup is too slow?) and therefore gopen just starts the requested application on itself, which leads to two instances of this process running. :-( Wolfgang
