I think I've already rebuilt by now - but the rev is in the #0 https://crrev.com/c7ebaa1

git fetch origin
git checkout c7ebaa1

and the GYP flags I used are:

GYP_DEFINES=dcheck_always_on=1 branding=Chrome disable_nacl=1

gclient sync
ninja -C out\Release mini_installer

and to repro I install Chrome Stable off the web first (to tag myself as Stable channel and with a brand code)

then I update to my version of chrome from the build output by running:

mini_installer.exe --multi-install --system-level

Then I delete my user data dir, and run Chrome with

--enable-logging=stderr >log.txt 2>&1

and I get those warnings. They only appear on first run.
wfh@, I was looking for the chrome profile path, which is in your chrome://version.

It would be the default profile path for a new install on a fresh install of Windows having never had Chrome on it before. You should be able to repro using the steps in #2, I can try and repro next time I am doing some testing in a clean VM.
