I had the same problem, after renaming VMs restored from Q3.2.

[qubes-users] Re: Removed/renamed VMs are not completely removed from system configuration data

I had same thing happen to me but only when restoring appvms of the same name 
installed on installer.  or cancelling a restore halfway through and restoring 
again.

I also noticed you can remove them from system,  but they will still be looked 
for on bootup.  I ended up just reinstalling this time choosing not to install 
any default appvms and letting restore completely finish.
