No, indeed, the warnings are appearing during the start up of a very
large program and I'm trying to locate the part of the program they are
coming from ...

That's good to know, but it is rather a blunt instrument, calling
g_log_set_fatal_mask() from the debugger normally lets you pin down
particular warnings. Bizarrely, at present gdb has suddenly got amnesia
and declares
(gdb) call g_log_set_fatal_mask ("Gtk", 0x)
No symbol "g_log_set_fatal_mask" in current context.
Where previously it was returning the previous mask as it should.

Yes, it doesn't seem to cause a problem, but there is worse to come - I
have had a couple of crashes coming from Gtk since upgrading to Debian
Stable (hence Gtk 3.22) and I can get this:
Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_box_gadget_distribute: assertion 'size >= 0'
failed in GtkScrollbar
during a gtk_widget_show_all () of a widget that has previously been
working. At least I know where this one is happening...
Thanks for you helpful reply,
Richard
