Microsoft Word generates excessive console log entries

Since upgrading to MS Word 14.3.0 yesterday my console is filled with entries such as:

Am I the only one?

Microsoft's support site does not provide any clues.

Any thoughts?

Hi Peter, Dear all:


My console shows about 100 of the following messages per minute


2013-01-31 2:05:59.871 PM Microsoft Word[4332]: bind_window_backing: cannot map backing data shmem

2013-01-31 2:05:59.871 PM Microsoft Word[4332]: _CGSLockWindow: Unable to lock window


Besides that and since I upgraded to 14.3.0 two days ago, MS Word has crashed on me about 30 times (editing a plain simple text only document with track changes) and I've tons of problems with Word's GUI. I have submitted a couple feedback messages describing the problems to MS.


Realizing this is not the perfect place for this topic note that I have not found any statements from MS re problems with 14.3.0 yet and this is the first discussion I am aware of that recognizes a potential issue with the recent upgrade. My intent is merely to generate some momentum, so please contact MS if you do have problems with 14.3.0 - thanks!
