The *.gcm files store some state information per book (data file). One of the things that's stored is which tabs were open the last time you closed the book or quit gnucash. The gnc:option-set-value and its replacement gnc-set-option specifically are used by reports to store their state. So if you had any reports open when you last closed to book, either of these function names can appear in the *.gcm files.
>From what I can tell the newer gnc-set-option was introduced in the 5.x >series. So gnucash 4.x won't understand it. For backwards compatibility, gnucash hence continues to use the deprecated version of the function so that users can freely switch between 4.x and 5.x. I'd expect the 6.x series to fully switch to the newer gnc-set-option function and no longer use nor support the deprecated gnc:option-set-value. If the current warning bother you, you can set GUILE_WARN_DEPRECATED to "no" instead of "detailed".
