the bug is present in gutsy 
$ gsynaptics-init 

** (gsynaptics-init:18215): WARNING **: Using synclient
Unknown parameter CoastingSpeedThreashold

it is very easy to fix this error, just modify the string containing 
CoastingSpeedThreashold
maybe replacing it by just the first part of the name:
CoastingSpeed 
that appears to be just a typing mistake 
in the source files for:

$ grep -ir CoastingSpeedThreashold /usr/
Binary file /usr/X11R6/bin/gsynaptics-init matches
Binary file /usr/X11R6/bin/gsynaptics matches

I dont know how to modify that files in the repository, also I uninstalled 
thouchpad before reporting the bug. 
neither I am 100% shure that the name replacement I suggested above is the 
intended behavior, because I haven't seen the source code.
I just browsed the object code discovering the string:  "CoastingSpeedThreshold 
%s", 
thus I inferred that this is part of a string format used to issue some code 
like

char format[]="something CoastingSpeedTreshold %s";
int value = some number;
....
sprintf(command,format,value);
system(command);  or some of the exec family 

I hope this helps to fix the problem. I regret not to know how to fix by
my self being as easy as it seems because I am very busy at this moment
to learn how.
