pacman error

When I perform a 'pacman -Syu' I get this error:

error: could not cwd to /current/os/i686/: 500 OOPS: capset

Is this something I need to worry about?  I wasn't getting this error a few days ago.

It likely tells you that you where fetching packages from an server running vsftpd with no capability module loaded. Which mirror was it btw?
