I have hundreds if not thousands of lines like this in /var/log/messages:

They seem to produced during periods of network activity.  The box has a vanilla 10.1 beta3 install and doesn't do any IPV6.

At first, disable the firewall completely and test if the messages still occur (if it is enabled).
Comment 2 Michael Gross 2006-02-24 18:24:19 UTC 
Per: Try again with Beta5, people told me this issue was known and fixed. Reopen if you still have trouble with B5.
Comment 3 Per Jessen 2006-02-24 19:18:29 UTC 
OK, will wait for B5 to appear.  FYI, firewall was not enabled.  This is happening on a workstation on our local network.
Comment 4 Per Jessen 2006-03-11 10:26:37 UTC 
OK, have now tried Beta6 and the messages do seem to have disappeared.
