Those glib messages can just be gibberish. Sometimes we want to insert nothing.

Do you know when this happened? Was there any setting not saved?

I have no clue I know it occurs on both my desktop and laptop both are Debian Unstable.

Then I think there is nothing wrong here. This just happens when you set a setting to nothing and we insert NULL. Probably a value ?: "" would be good to surpress this bogus message though.
