I saw the same warnings on one of my systems as well, but it boots fine. On another one, the same behaviour occurs, but GDM can be started manually by restarting xorg-server from a TTY. Note, that I can not do so from an SSH remote, because SSH fails to start in a similar manner.
My system does indeed have a really slow disk, so perhaps this makes the problem more likely to happen. Obviously, it would be nice if gdm started correctly, but in a bigger picture, it would be nice if shepherd had a better way of dealing with misbehaving services. For example, if shepherd know how to check the health of a service and restarted it wasn't responding correctly.
I don't know where to go from here. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable about gnome and gdm can help us out.
Best, Jack
