The message is there "because you are not supposed to do it"
See for instance

http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=100953+0+archive/2007/freebsd-emulation/20070415.freebsd-emulation

This seems to have not caused any problem in practice.  And
any way taking out the message doesn't change the essential
behavior (the invariant is still broken) but it can speed up
your emulation considerably.
