Getting Data In

Where did the ForwarderInfo events go after upgrading to Splunk 4.3?

I just upgrade to Splunk 4.3.2 from Splunk 4.2.3 and I noticed that the follow events are no longer being populated in the internal index:

ForwarderInfo build=119532 version=4.3.1 os=Windows arch=Intel hostname=server.example.com guid=97A6EA09-9999-4F09-B659-4DDB03C4D729 fwdType=uf ssl=false lastIndexer=172.16.1.149:9997

Any ideas on how/why this information went away?
