I used to have the status messages all the time... it went away when I
upgraded hardware (but not the drive itself, curiously. Just
/everything/ else in the box. 

Similarly I've seen that df output a few times, I vaguelly recall it
being some libc upgrade wierdness (all my machines are debian too). I'm
pretty sure a reboot fixed it all. (all my memories of this are 6+
months old :)
