This is a problem but there have been a few reports to the mailing list already about it. Also if you have a lot of text just give us a snippet and throw the rest on www.pastebin.com , especially if it's the same line multiple times and you're posting just for effect.
As far as I know there isn't anything you can "do" about this, it's steam working issues out with itself OR it's a client crash and the steam servers notice it before the client times out. If it's the later case then Valve is working on making that process a bit more visible so they can start diagnosing the issue. From what I understand it's a hard bug to reproduce on a whim.
