I tested with upstream source of gimp-2.8.18.tar.bz2 [https://download.gimp.org/mirror/pub/gimp/v2.8/].
It is specifically compiled against gegl-0.2. 

Ubuntu 16.04 has gegl-0.3 (and not gegl-0.2). Debian and Ubuntu both use bump_Babl-GEGL_versions.patch:
-PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GEGL, gegl-0.2 >= gegl_required_version)
+PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GEGL, gegl-0.3 >= gegl_required_version)

I made this modification and compiled upstream gimp-2.8.18.tar.bz2. And
encountered same startup warnings.

I installed gegl-0.2 (runtime+devel) from Ubuntu-14.04 (It needs also these old packages: libopenexr6 libilmbase6 libumfpack5.6.2 libamd2.3.1 libcholmod2.1.2 libcamd2.3.1 libccolamd2.8.0 libcolamd2.8.0). Then I compiled Ubuntu-16.04's version of gimp, gimp-2.8.16-1ubuntu1 against gegl-0.2 (dropping gegl-part of bump_Babl-GEGL_versions.patch and tuning debian/control).

Now this gimp does NOT have these warnings. So the base reason for these
gegl-warnings seems to be too new gegl. (Or some of those other
dependency libraries).

bump_Babl-GEGL_versions.patch seems to relate this debian bugreport:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=790421 (migrating from
gegl-0.2 to gegl-0.3).
