I occasionally get log output such as that I've posted below. The pdf is not updated, but both the dvi and ps file are correctly compiled. TeXShop correctly compiles using pdflatex. Occasionally latexmk will decide to use pdflatex and everything will work correctly. I don't really know what's happening with ps2pdf and what it means by "stable files" and I'm not sure if this error is caused by a bug in latexmk or maybe some error in the configuration info given to latexmk by textmate.
Does the latex bundle have any control over whether latexmk uses pdflatex or regular latex?
