Actually it should have read the other way round. If service-pics
 are not installed you will see this error, I missed the "not" :-)
 Or if you remove the PIC later on from the system. 10.0.0.1 is not 
installed in the table, unless there is a pic in the system. 10.0.0.1
 and 10.0.0.x (pic internal address) are ends of a point to point 
interface. Its purely informational message and will be lowered to 
DEBUG level as part of PR 55431. I don't know why you didn't  see it
 prior to 7.0R2.7

Regarding Harshit's first comment..

FWIW, this has nothing to do with services pics.  We have none of 
those, nor routing instances of our own, and when we upgraded to 
7.0R2.7, started seeing these messages.

PR55431 despite its pretty bogus description is probably tracking this 
issue and there is no need to report it (again) ?
