Found this note in the doc for SLIP SET parameters:

"Between the instant matchlim is reached and when the trap is actually 
disabled, a small amount of time elapses. It is possible for the trap to match 
on another CPU during this small time interval. If this occurs, matchlim will 
actually be exceeded, with unexpected results. Therefore, use caution in 
setting a trap in a heavily used module as, for example, the dispatcher."

Not sure if this would apply generally, though.
