kernel.log gsettings segfault spam

So one day I had enough of the spamming core dump message in my kernel.log,

gsettings is a file of glib2 pkg, and glib2 cannot be removed because it is a dependency.
I tryed

$ gsettings help

, but it gave me segfault. It makes me wonder.
I found that core dump message started around 2014-04-07, here is the packages I have installed on that day.
