These days, gnome-settings-daemon has been split into several different processes. If you are able to reproduce this on unstable, it would be helpful to know which of the gsd-* processes you see it with. If you can still reproduce it, I wonder if you're seeing my problem: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/issues/64>. Is your system a laptop and/or does it have multiple GPUs? Could you try to build test2.c[0] with the command: gcc -Wall $(pkg-config gnome-desktop-3.0 --cflags --libs) test2.c` and run it, and see if it leaks memory on your system?
