Correct, we had one last weekend:
IWM063I WLM POLICY WAS REFRESHED DUE TO A PROCESSOR SPEED CHANGE
This time it was because of a powersupply failure. 
Last time it was because of a failed cooling fan, this time probably
because of a fan stopped by the failed powersupply. The processor slows
down to reduce heatproduction.
