I thought this was gone, but on a kernel from Saturday I'm seeing a bunch of
these:

This one is covered in the FAQ in the troubleshooting section, 5.19.

And what the FAQ doesn't cover is here:

http://wiki.freebsd.org/JeremyChadwick/Commonly_reported_issues

* EIST (Intel SpeedStep) incompatibilities with Supermicro PDSMI+ motherboards 
(and possibly others)
   * Symptom: kernel outputs messages like kernel: calcru: negative runtime of 
-XXXXX usec for pid XX
   * Workaround: Disable the EIST feature in the BIOS. You can still achieve 
ACPI-based processor
     frequency throttling by using powerd(8).
   * Reference:

What I find interesting is I hadn't seen these until this kernel update :(

Thanks for the info, however.
