Okay, I think I now see what you described. When did this change 
occur? I have not updated my git package.

Why is this now happening only in the past several days?

Why am I now receiving all of these fatal messages? How do I stop 
the messages?

The latest fatal is tde-i18n, the biggest pig module of them all.
