Sensord messages in syslog



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Howdy list,

I've been getting some messages in syslog the past couple days like the
following: 

Apr 20 04:19:10 jacob sensord: Sensor alarm: Chip w83627hf-isa-0290:
+3.3V: +3.22 V (min = +3.14 V, max = +3.47 V) [ALARM]
Apr 20 03:58:10 jacob sensord: Sensor alarm: Chip w83627hf-isa-0290:
VCore 1: +1.60 V (min = +1.52 V, max = +1.68 V) [ALARM]

Obviously it's an alarm from sensord, though not one that triggered
more than a syslog warning about it (as I've not heard any beeping from
my computer). But here's my question; in the first line it says the
+3.3V line is currently at +3.22V, where the min is set to +3.14V and
the max is set to +3.47. So it would look like the +3.3V line is where
it is supposed to be, in the middle of the min and max. Vcore 1 looks
the same way. So, why is sensord spitting out alarms about this? Is
there a setting I'm misunderstanding, or does sensord simply not like
fluctuating voltages, even if they do stay within the proper limits?

TIA,
Jacob
