I've been getting these, too, with 2.1.35. It seems to be related to
when I kill my PPP connection, or lose it. I get four of those, and then
the connection goes. I've learned to ignore them, since my machine
hasn't been doing anything strangely. 2.1.35 seems to be a very stable
development kernel other than that :)
