Error 389 - do I need to worry?

I'm on an iMac under 10.6.8

Whenever I connect t the app store, I get a slew of these messages in the console:

10/19/12 11:43:37 AM	[0x0-0x2b02b].com.apple.appstore[389]	Fri Oct 19 11:43:37 MAG-home2.local App Store[389] <Error>: CGBitmapContextGetBitsPerComponent: invalid context 0x10038e470
10/19/12 11:43:37 AM	[0x0-0x2b02b].com.apple.appstore[389]	This isn't a bitmap context. Forcing destination format to ARGB_8 for CGContext.

though it seems to work okay. Then, when I disconnect, I always get two of these:

10/19/12 11:43:38 AM

App Store[389]

multibyte IDs are unsupported.

Is something missing from my system? Do I need to worry?

Thanks.

Installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1will replace any missing system files.

Retart your Mac after the combo is installed.

Then try the App Store.

It's ok to do this even though v10.6.8 is already installed on your Mac.

Thanks for the suggestion but re-installing made no difference. Other than the error is now 247, so I guess that number is meaningless. The error message text is still the same. I tried the app store on my macbook and it, too, gives the same error messages. Everything seems to work, but I'd prefer knowing everything's fine. Anyone else seeing this behaviour?
