Kernel bug?

Hello eveyone, I just updated my Macbook to the new kernel (2.6.21) and everything seems to be working fine.  One thing is during the bootup process, the following message scrolls by:

BUG: at kernel/mutex.c:311 __mutex_trylock_slowpath()

From what I can tell, everything seems to be working fine, I don't notice anything different.  But I am a bit worried about the above message.  Anyone have any idea what its about?  Thanks
