Riki,
It means that a HFA (Erdas Imagine) format file had a BASEDATA object
with data inside it of a type not supported by GDAL. This is likely not
too serious - perhaps you will have incorrect nodata values.
If it is a concern, consider filing a ticket with the data. Assuming
you are working with an arc/info binary coverage, likely all we need
is the .aux file.
Best regards,
