I see the same thing on a 7201 that I have had trouble with.  I'm 
running 12.4(24)T.  Gi0/3 has a SFP-GE-S in it.  The link I had trouble 
with was Gi0/0 though.  0/0, 0/1 and 0/3 all show the error.  0 and 1 
are actually RJ45 so I suppose this could be expected, though I'd prefer 
that the media-type command disable the SFP check on those interfaces.

The problem I had was on gi0/3 with MTUs going out via copper onto a 
fiber media converter.  It worked fine for several months and then one 
day it wigged out on me and started silently dropping jumbo frames.

I have another 7201 with single-strand optics in Gi0/0 and 0/1.  0/2 and 
0/3 are SX, same as above.  0/3 shows the error.


Gi0/3 on the 7201 is the product of taking one of the unused PCI buses 
that would be servicing PA slots in a VXR chassis and turning it into a 
GigE interface.
