[comp.sys.mac.programmer] What is a spurious interrupt?

I encountered a weird system error this evening.  While I was running a
music application I wrote some time ago, After Dark (newly acquired) cut in.
About 5 seconds later, the machine crashed with a "spurious interrupt"
error message, something I've never seen before.  Can someone tell me
what it means?  In case it matters, the After Dark module I use
is one of the silent ones.
