Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Sam_ (and-sam)]

Multiple lines after preparing multiarch-support.

[Sam_ (and-sam)]

Not related to multiarch, pixpuf messages rather spam in between if some theme gets updated.
Found just another example (912209).

Debian Sid, the same bug:

(gtk-update-icon-cache:10455): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Cannot open pixbuf loader module file '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache': File o directory non esistente

This likely means that your installation is broken.
Try running the command
  gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache
to make things work again for the time being.
