It's a harmless error. If you compile your own kernel, edit
arch/ppc/kernel/pmac_time.c, and in pmac_set_rtc_time, look for something like
case: CUDA
....
//if(req.reply_len != 7)
printk("pmac_set_rtc_time: got %d byte reply\n");
...
And uncomment and change the if(..) to
if(req.reply_len != 3 && req.reply_len != 7)
This is also off the top of my head, so I know it's not totally correct.
