I ran into that too recently.  It was one of the packages I installed 
recently, but I can't remember which one.  My log says that I installed 
these yesterday:

Thu Aug 29 09:13:54 /usr/src/mesalib/MesaLib-9.2.0.tar.bz2
Thu Aug 29 16:16:31 /usr/src/reiser/reiserfsprogs-3.6.24.tar.xz
Thu Aug 29 17:06:56 /usr/src/sqlite/sqlite-autoconf-3080000.tar.gz
Thu Aug 29 17:38:40 /usr/src/raptor/raptor2-2.0.10.tar.gz

We may need to look a little closer at MesaLib.  Another possibility may 
be kbd-2.0 if you are using that.
