What libraries are linked to your Emacs?  Can you send the output of ldd?
Also if you can start the debugger and put breakpoints for g_log and 
g_logv and then post the backtrace when the breakpoint is hit, that 
would  be nice.  We can then see exactly what library is causing these 
messages.  Previously Emacs tried to call g_type_init as needed but as 
new libraryes that use glib was added (like dbus for example), this 
wasn't kept up to date.
