	Um,  I was able to take care of this message by configuring
my kernel without the lpa (interruptless printer driver) in both
386BSD and FreeBSD.  I thought (someone coreect me if I'm wrong)
that the message is caused by the kernel receiving a message at
an interrupt that it's not expecting.  Since the lpt device uses
irq7, the messages go away.
