That's interesting b/c the first time I installed Gentoo on a 1.3 Ghz P4 I didn't see any such messages, but recently (after goofing up my install...I won't say how) when reinstalling Gentoo I got similar messages...
I figured that my fan must have died or something (my box is about 3 or 4 years old), so I opened it up to take a look, and I found that there was a lot of dust in my case, and I suspect that when doing large compiles that it was simply getting too hot... I've since cleaned it out and I have not seen anymore messages... Being that your laptop is so new it (hopefully) wouldn't have that sort of problem, but that's my 2 cents...
