The FlaggedRevs extension adds a message in a big red box to the top of watchlists stating "There is currently a backlog of pending edits to reviewed pages. Your attention is needed!" It does this regardless of whether there are actually any pending edits or not. On small wikis, this makes it rather annoying. The extension should be changed either to show this message only when there actually are unreviewed revisions, or not to show it at all, and let individual wikis add permanent watchlist messages if they think they are needed.
Hm. Had a look at the code, and there is logic there to do this, but because estimateRowCount returns 1 when there are 0 rows, on a wiki with less than 50 pages the message is always shown, hence why I couldn't make it go away on my test wiki. I guess that's not too much of a problem.
If the estimate is low, then the brute query can be run, which would avoid this.
Fixed in r52072
