Yes, that's exactly the point. It looks as if we've got into the habit of leaving the semicolon off (or perhaps we never realised it was needed) and that might not cause any obvious problems in normal use, but it does cause a huge list of complaints to standard error which I suspect delays the opening of the application until the complaints are sent/written/logged.
There is just the possibility that Texstar has chosen for some reason that it be like this, but unless that is the case it looks like something we need to watch in future.
