It's wrong sysctl usage. It looks like problem with some initscript where is deprecated sysctl option. Can you check your /etc/sysctl.conf or you can try: grep -r "net.ipv6.neigh.eth0.base_reachable_time" /etc/* 2> /dev/null

Do you have still this problem with the latest kernel and procps?
I haven't seen this message with FC4 or FC5 (Rawhide) in a long time.
Thanks for your feedback. Closing.
