I think this isn't really a release blocker unless the repercussions of what is happening here is more serious than I realize. There is apparently a race condition caused by async executing xrdb, setting the old values when attempting to set new values, and doing so multiple times. This appears to end up causing xrdb to set the old values instead of the new values the user just selected in the gui. This ends up causing anything that uses xrdb, such as OOo, to look wrong when compared to Gnome. Restarting their session after each time they change the value should resolve this issue as far as I know, but users don't know to do this since the change in Gnome takes effect immediately.
