RTC BIOS diagnostic error 20 (4.9-REL)

["J.D. Bronson®"]

I have noticed the following on 4.9-REL i386 but only once in awhile..

...
sc0: <System console> at flags 0x100 on isa0
sc0: VGA <16 virtual consoles, flags=0x100>
sio0 at port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x30 on isa0
sio0: type 16550A, console
RTC BIOS diagnostic error 20<config_unit>
APIC_IO: Testing 8254 interrupt delivery
APIC_IO: Broken MP table detected: 8254 is not connected to IOAPIC #0 intpin 2
APIC_IO: routing 8254 via 8259 and IOAPIC #0 intpin 0
SMP: AP CPU #1 Launched!
...

I searched and found others had asked this, but there didnt seem any 
concrete answer...

The machine runs quite well and I am not aware of -any- issues...but 
someone out there MUST know what this actually means....boot -v does not 
yield any further information.

Help?
