startup of the 'twilight' background generator

On a 4D/25TG running 3.2.1, I get the following message deposited in
/usr/adm/SYSLOG whenever the Howard Look/Trevor Paquette/Reuel Nash
'twilight' background generator starts:

Jun 27 11:58:45 sdchemi2 grcond[1705]: CIO: SGI_set_rects: state not initialized

Has anyone else seen this?
I haven't noticed any problems other than this message, but us customers don't
get ANY info about 'grcond', so I'm not sure if I should worry about it or not.

I usually start the program in my private user.ps with code like:

    /RestartActions [ 
	    { (gamma 2.4) seqfork }         % 2.4 is a better guess than 1.7
	    { (4sight/night2) seqfork }
	    { (demochest) seqfork }
	    { (-p128,12 -r1000 -s40x80 -m66x132) forkwsh }   % My inital window
    ] def

but the same message will be generated when I start it from 'wsh'.
