The error is caused by the patch 100_load_desired_settings.patch by adding:

/* return NULL if the file doesn't exist */
if (!g_file_test (filename, G_FILE_TEST_EXISTS))
{
    result = NULL;

    return result;
}

to the function configurations_read_from_file() in libgnome-desktop/gnome-rr-config.c, because it leaves the error passed to the function uninitialized which later causes the error in gnome-settings-deamon's xrandr-plugin (gsd-xrandr-manager.c, function apply_configuration_from_filename()).

Removing that part makes the errors go away but for sure that's not a proper fix. No patch attached since I don't know how useful patching a patch is...
