Everytime I close a gvim window with the little x on the window or Alt + F4. I get the following error and have to hit return to get my command prompt back. Has anyone seen this?

(gvim:26639): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot retrieve class for invalid (unclassed) type `<invalid>'

Normally, GLib-GObject-WARNING while running gtk applications in the command line, are normally ignored by developers and demonstrate a poorly written applications. If you report a bug against the package, it would be the best, but don't act surprised if developers ignore or say that "is ok" in your bug report.

TL;dr: They are normally safe to be ignored.
