I'm surprised those are the only ones (?) that you see, because I see 
about 10 to 20 depending whether E_STRICT is (accidentally) on or not. 
It seems crazy, but I always get a lot of notices with WP_DEBUG on.

I would probably say that those are nothing to worry about, since they 
are notices. However, they probably should go into one of the tickets 
tracking notices so that they can be fixed. I believe the goal is to fix 
all of the areas where E_NOTICEs are showing (no go with E_STRICT, so 
best not to have that set).
