It's telling you that Apple screwed up and forgot to put an autorelease pool on a new thread.

You could submit this via bugreporter.apple.com, but otherwise, there's not much you can do about it. Fortunately, your machine should still work fine - the only thing that this will do is leak memory, which isn't great, but it's less serious than a crash.

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist. Macworld - five mice!
