Usually not to worry.  Run it again to see if it goes away.  From the
chkrootkit FAQ:

"If you run chkproc on a server that runs lots of short time processes it
could report some false positives. chkproc compares the ps output with the
/proc contents. If processes are created/killed during this operation
chkproc could point out these PIDs as suspicious. "

Cheers!
