I just had a spontaneous shutdown that I think is caused by this bug (same message in my log, followed by everything shutting down). I've never had one before, having been running Ubuntu since 7.04 and installing Jaunty in June 2009.
Relevant portion of my syslog below, and HardInfo report attached - hope they're useful.
