I can't recreate it here, after the "shutdown now" messages I get:

------------------------------------- cut -------------------------------------
Enter pathname of shell or RETURN for sh: 

# halt

boot() called on cpu#1
oops, I'm on cpu#1, I need to be on cpu#0!
SMP: cpu#1 freezing

syncing disks... done

The operating system has halted.
Please press any key to reboot.
------------------------------------- cut -------------------------------------

so I have no idea what your seeing...  If you're not seeing disk corruption
(or fsck running) when it reboots I wouldn't worry about it too much.
Can anyone else report seeing this?
