From time to time, upon exiting Vim an error message flashes on the screen, but

a way to log such errors or somehow pause Vim when an error appears?

Use the :messages command.
The OP is exiting Vim, so the :messages command won't be available.
If you're running Vim in terminal mode from a Linux shell, you can
use script:
1. Run script. This starts a new shell.
2. Run vim.
3. Exit vim.
4. Exit the shell.
5. Open the typescript file and look for the error message.
Thanks, I did not know about script (will I ever know every program in
my /usr/bin?).
It does the job. Now I have to try and reproduce the error!
