I confirm it is harmless. Typically, it happens when you are using
lm-sensors <= 2.10.2, a kernel >= 2.6.22, and you did not enable
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED in your kernel. So the fix is to either upgrade
to lm-sensors 2.10.3 or later, or rebuild your kernel with
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y.

This is explained on this page for reference:
http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Kernel2.6

Now Darrick says he has the problem with lm-sensors SVN, which is more
surprising. Maybe sensors is linking with an older version of
libsensors present on the system. This theory can be confirmed by
running "sensors -v".
