David,

Looking at the dnsmasq.conf file, I don't see an easy way to disable that.

http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/dnsmasq.conf.example

It's info, not a warning but it is very helpful.  It's also not very 
chatty.  I will not support removing it by default.  The only time it 
shows up is when the DHCP lease is renewed or when a device is 
restarted.  If those 6 lines are going to break a system, we have 
something that's way to fragile.  (It's not fragile).  I'd suggest using 
an external syslog host if you're really that concerned about this 
taking up too much size.  They are logged to tmpfs, not to the CF card 
(unless you purposely enable persistent logging).
