The Atmel AIC has the same problem.

And though I just start using it the ST STR7 EIC also.

If an interrupt request needs some cycles to propagate through 
peripheral -> (VIC|AIC|EIC) -> Core it is very likely that you
are able to disable the interrupt source before the VIC could
evaluate the source => spurious interrupt.

BTW: It is not an ARM problem. Coldfire CPUs do have the same problem.
