I get the same thing with my Cyrix MediaGX 180MHz CPU (486-class, according
to boot probes) running 2.2.6-R, although my numbers don't go as high as
yours (latest were -4672 and -4748). It starts a few days after cycling
power to the machine. I ignore it and it doesn't seem to cause problems.
Perhaps this has something to do with 486-class CPUs?
