Summary:                    Irrelevant Notice
Description: 
The message "Attempted to delete nonexistent schedule entry" from sched.c
occurs in 1.4.0 upwards on a frequent basis at cleardown time. This
detracts from the use of Log/Verbose applications to provide meaningful
warnings to the console.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
It's not actually irrelevant.  Being unable to delete a schedule entry is
actually a potential source of a crash or alternately, a memory leak.  If
the scheduler fires after you deallocate the memory associated with that
task, it could result in memory corruption and a crash.  If you fail to
deallocate that memory, your process may leak memory.
