I've got my own .xsession script for starting up a simple fvwm session,
and ran into the same problem which I eventually tracked down. Here's
a fragment of my .xsession file:

# Breaking news! Every damn time I connect from work via VNC, the next
# time I login to the console X session, I get a $#@! popup about
# "The X system keyboard settings differ from your current GNOME
# keyboard settings." After near infinite amounts of poking sticks
# in random holes, I finally discovered that the $@#! gconf keys
# under /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd.sysbackup need to
# be reset to make this go away, so just always reset that key before
# starting gnome-settings-daemon.
#
/usr/bin/gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd.sysbackup
/usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon &

If you are running a normal gnome session, I'm not sure where to wedge in
the gconftool-2 call to make it happen prior to gnome-settings-daemon,
but removing that key worked for me. I no longer get the annoying
popup message.
