You clipped the part about "because something might have affected that 
recording rule"

The scheduler is run very frequently, but is often run for only a 
specific recording rule.  Sometimes, it will be run for all rules.  When 
mythfilldatabase finishes running, it requests a reschedule for all 
rules ("Reschedule requested for id -1") and says to rematch everything 
(i.e. check the listings data again because generally mfdb changes the 
listings data).
