boost gauge/bypass valve

i have an 05 ss/sc with about 86k on it. recently, i've noticed that the boost gauge is not responding normally. any time the gauge is in the vacuum region, it seems to operate only in steps. 20 inHg vacuum to 15 to 0, while still travelling smoothly up and down the boost region. i haven't noticed a change in drivability yet - is this likely an issue with the gauge itself, or an indication that something is starting to go screwy elsewhere?
