I get the exact same warning on my Debian Etch system, which began after 
upgrading to OMSA 5.3.  I'd been meaning to ask about this.  Thanks for 
reminding me to follow up on this issue, Troels.  :-)

I'd also be interested in any information about whether this is a serious 
warning or not.  I could just downgrade back to OMSA 5.2 I guess, but that 
doesn't seem like the best solution.
