People,

it has been said several times here that the autosave.xml message is
harmless ( and misleading as it appears ). The worst thing to do is to
create a dummy, empty file or play with preference.xml like shooting in
the dark. This file is created when the program close without aborting.

The abort message has nothing to do with the autosave.xml stuff ( at the
begining, now who knows ? ). The --log-level=info option may say more
about the real problem.
