Is this a blank log file?

I do have time stamp data, they look like this, with OS time and date of
modification or creation as well:
GCfile.20100207224229.log

I thought that was a known bug. I went through bugzilla and it seems that it
was thought to be a squashed bug in 2.2.2:
 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=467521
It happens to me almost every time I open the program.  I leave it open for
days at a time to avoid this issue.

what should I do to help in reporting why this happens to me?

Windows 7 64bit  with GC 2.2.9
