Exactly the same here, same messages (I could'nt post'em because I
didn't had my iBook at hand before).
The fact that the interface obtains it's address via dhcp (so do mine)
has nothing to see here (at least in my case). I've tried with static ip
and the messages are exactly the same.

In my case, they also appear if I bring up my interface with a static
address and then I try to send traffic to the air (ping or whatever).
