Description of problem:
If meld is executed from command line (e.g. in git diretory) there is a lot of warnings in terminal.

** (meld:7592): WARNING **: Couldn't register with accessibility bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

Actual results:
See attached screenschot

Expected results:
I appreciate if output will be at least similar to the version from fedora 20.
As you can see, it is difficult to see which line is newly added.

I made a local build with a trivial upgrade to meld-3.11.3. I think it partly solves this issue by giving less warnings ... and it is useable!
3.11.1 started up in a small window every time - 3.11.3 remembers the last size and can thus start up in a useful size.
3.11.1 did not show color highlighting of diff chunks - 3.11.3 do.
